The artwork of eclectic filmmaker Tim Burton is about to take over the New York Museum of Modern Art.

The museum announced this week that exhibit, titled "Tim Burton," will display Burton's original artwork from Nov. 22 through April 26, 2010, and will also have a film series to screen all of Burton's films -- which include "Batman," "Edward Scissorhands," "Ed Wood," "Sleepy Hollow," "Corpse Bride" and "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street."

In a statement, the museum said that the exhibition will follow "the current of his visual imagination from his earliest childhood drawing through his mature work, the exhibition presents artwork generated during the conception and production of his films and highlights a number of unrealized projects and never-before-seen pieces, as well as student art, his earliest non-professional films, and examples of his work as a storyteller and graphic artist for non-film projects."

Promising a diverse exhibit, the museum said that it will show "the opposing themes of adolescence and adulthood, and the elements of sentiment, cynicism, and humor inform his work in a variety of mediums -- drawings, paintings, storyboards, digital and moving-image formats, puppets and maquettes, props, costumes, ephemera, sketchbooks and cartoons."

Burton is currently teaming with actor and friend Johnny Depp on "Alice in Wonderland," the first trailer of which received positive at the San Diego Comic Con. He also recently produced the animated film "9," starring the voice of Elijah Wood, which will be released in theaters in September.

Burton's official Web site recently announced that a book featuring his artwork will be released in the fall. The book will include essays from several of the 50-year-old director's collaborators, including Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Danny Elfman, Martin Landau and Danny DeVito.

The director's other films include "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure," "Beetlejuice," "Batman Returns," "Mars Attacks!" "Big Fish" and "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." He also created and produced "The Nightmare Before Christmas," as well as the book "The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories" and "Stainboy" -- the title character of which guides users through an interactive look at Burton's gallery work on his official site.
