The USA Exhibit takes as its theme the designers „Work in Progress," a concept which illustrates the creative processes from which a theatre piece develops. Our setting-an archetypal „designers studio" — is propped and dressed with our exhibit materials. Intermingling are works by nearly 100 major US costume and scenic designers in the performing arts and entertainment media: theatre, opera, dance, television and film.
Source material; white and painted models; sketches and drawings elevations; samples; workshop; shop, rehearsal, and production photos; costume, prop, and set pieces illuminate the creative process which is both common to designers of all nations, yet unique to each.
