Inside the “unusual, magical and bizarre” world of NeonMuseum’s “Lost Vegas”
It's becoming the ultimate climax, and makes maximalism seem like too weak of an umbrella to describe its addiction to all things extra.But artist Tim Burton remembers a much different Vegas — one he'd frequently visit growing up on the West Coast, where staying at hotels meant penny investments, sometimes complete vacancy, and quiet hallways with no activity beyond squeaky cleaning service carts.
There are some familiar touchstones for fans of Burton's existing work, including sculptures of his wide-eyed alien invaders from the 1996 film— a Vegas-based production inspired by sci-fi B-movies of the '50s and '60s. Inside the museum, they look like they're hiding in-between signs, ready for another shot at taking over Planet Earth.
This new work, 90% of which is site specific, was created to spotlight all things"larger than life, colorful, shocking, charming and strange" about Vegas, Burton writes. Through, he wanted to reimagine"a place where everyday rules seem not to apply," and revisit an era when"unusual, magical and bizarre things were always possible."
