I am thinking of a show revolving around one actress Helena Bonham Carter as the theme. A series of portraits from her movies. Any thoughts? Thanks Tom

i'd like to curate a show around William Frawley, . . .Fred Mertz(spelling) I watch TMC & AMC all the time and love spotting him in bit parts here and there. Hard to believe he was born in 1887.

I think that is a really cool idea, she has been in a slew of terrific movies and is quite interesting to look at.
I want to see a Wallace & Gromit submission!

is her birthday coming up or something? why her out of curiosity? I think its a great idea. I think the best part of it, is that Helena Bonham Carter has a unique face. She isn't a typical looking Hollywood actress. There is just some people that really stick out, and have their own flair. Like Cate Blanchett, Bjork and so on

She is so ethereal and has a timeless beauty iv always found amazing. When I first saw her in "A Room with a View" then "Lady Jane" with her tiny waist and doe eyes it was love. (then Howard's End) And that wild head of hair! One of the most talented actress's of my generation. 20+ years in the biz and still gorgeous!
Id want to see artist capture her essence in a series of paintings outside of her film work for future generations to wonder who was this amazing woman.

you mean like this? Yeh that is a good one, but I definitely think the idea can be pushed more. Thats one thing about theme shows, I think they are often not pushed hard enough and are kind of simplified just so the work will sell easier.

Is that suppose to be her, maybe a Fight Club image? She is in the next Terminator sequel "Terminator Salvation" and the upcoming Tim Burton "Alice in Wonderland" movie. Photos of her below. Id like the paintings to be from her period piece films. Lady Jane Room with a View Where Angels Fear to Tread Frankenstein Howard's End Maurice Hamlet Sweeney Todd
