LACMA OPENS A CINEMATIC EXHIBIT ON ALEXANDER McQUEEN'S FASHION LEGACY

By José Alberto Hermosillo

LACMA PRESENTS A CINEMATIC EXHIBIT FOCUSING ON ALEXANDER McQUEEN

“Lee Alexander McQueen: Mind Mythos Muse” is the new eclectic, flashy, cinematic, and amusing LACMA exhibit dedicated to one of the most fabulous fashion designers of our time, Alexander McQueen.

The museography focuses on the artistry, creativity, and body of work of the prolific Scottish designer from 1990 to 2010.

LACMA’s buoyant exposition spotlights the dresses, fabrics, and accessories of the fashion virtuoso who killed himself in 2010 at the age of 39, right after the passing of his mother.

The museum displays many classy McQueen garments from the Regina J. Drucker Collection, alongside other artworks from LACMA’s permanent collection.

McQueen founded his label in 1992. The four-time winner of the British Designer of the Year was chief designer at the Givenchy firm from 1996 to 2001.

MacQueen’s fame flourished, making him the recipient of the International Designer of the Year award in 2003.

Visiting the “Lee Alexander McQueen: Mind Mythos Muse” exhibit is an eye-opener and a unique opportunity for the people of Los Angeles to explore, admire, analyze, and understand Alexander McQueen’s legacy.

The McQueen exhibition at LACMA is presented in the Resnick Pavilion and will be open to the public until October 9, 2022.

After going to LACMA’s installation, consider complementing the visit by watching at home on Hulu or Prime Video “McQueen,” a profound and bold documentary made in 2018 that focuses on the life of the controversial monster of fashion and design, Lee Alexander McQueen.

NETFLIX FILM EXPERIENCES 2020

By José Alberto Hermosillo

With well-elaborated exhibits, more screenings, Q&As, and special events, Netflix reached out to more press and social media and had the attention of Academy members.

Without any surprises, Netflix received more Oscar nominations than any other Studio 24, including two for Best Picture, two for Best Animation, two documentaries, and one for Documentary Short. Disney, the closest contender, had 23 nods for all its productions.

This year, without any controversies, the streaming service showed its films for seven days in movie theaters in the Los Angeles area before its streaming platform.

Netflix's aggressive campaign and spirit for excellence and customer service yielded success with more nominations and, at the same time, with more online subscribers regardless of the recent increment in the subscription fees.

The public could appreciate the films on the big screen and assist with Q&As with the directors, talent, and crew members. Plus, the city witnessed some excellent exhibits with costumes, props, and sets to immerse spectators in how the movies are made.

Here is a series of photographs with the costumes, set designs, and props of a well-mounted Netflix exhibition at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills in early January.

The exposition, with a museography quality, included vital elements of the films "Dolemite is My Name," "Marriage Story," "The Irishman," and "The Two Popes."

The Netflix live experience made spectators feel as if they were inside of those great movies that reached an Oscar nomination.
