In summer 2016, a new exhibit on the work of visionary director Guillermo del Toro will begin at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, focusing on del Toro’s creative process, including the well-defined themes that he obsessively returns to in all his films, the journals in which he logs his ideas, and the vast and inspiring collection of art and pop culture ephemera that he has amassed at his private “man cave,” Bleak House. This is the companion book, filled with imagery from the exhibit and delving further into the director’s world through exclusive in-depth interviews and commentary from notable figures in the art world.
