I've just been there today. Very nice work up on the wall's unfortunately that's about it. The curation of this exhebition is not very good I think. I was missing a red line guiding me through this massive and heavy body of work, as well as putting all the drawings into context. Pixar has obviously been very sparing on giving background information to the science museum.
All you ever get with the drawings is for which film it was made, the name and birth year of the artist. That's it. There is one really amazing surprise piece in the exhebition, all I can say is it's 3D coming to life.
Despite my offputing critique, if you are a fan, concept artist, designer, child or anything similar it's still going to be good. It was just that I went there with very high expectations and that in my opinion it could have been better, especially for almost ten pound.
