Seeking Artwork Relevant to "Willy Wonka"

AMP's picture

The Torrance Theatre Company is presenting "Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka" this summer at the 500-seat Armstrong Theatre. The show opens on August 3 and runs through August 17. In conjunction with this production, we would like to temporarily exhibit artwork that fits the aesthetics of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as you may know it by its 1971 film adaptation or the more recent movie starring Johnny Depp. The production's look will have a slight steampunk edge, but the work does not have to be steampunk.

Two-dimensional work would be easiest to install, but I will consider small sculptures. There are 3 walls - 13' x 23'; 12'x18'; and 12'x10'. Works can be for sale, and information on the artists will be made available. No commission will be taken.

All artists accepted into the exhibition will receive 2 free tickets to a performance of their choice, excluding opening night.

If you have work for me to consider, please email me several images with details about each one and your resume.

Thank you,
Eve Rappoport
