Cartoon Art Museum Mounts ‘Avengers’-Themed Exhibit

Exhibition of costumes and props from popular Marvel Studios films including ‘Iron Man’ and ‘The Avengers’ runs through June 28.

San Francisco, CA -- The Cartoon Art Museum presents The Bronze Armory Showcase, an exhibition of costumes and props from popular Marvel Studios films including Iron Man and The Avengers through June 28, 2015. 
Allan Lavigne explains about The Bronze Armory Studios, “The Bronze Armory Studios is a place where the impossible is made possible. If you can dream it or draw it we can design it and deliver it.

“Though we’re known for our costumes and props created for film, television and stage, we do so much more.

“Our studio is a laboratory for innovation and invention.  We have preformed government contracts, created proto types and study models for industry and science. Created exhibits for museums and reproduced rare historical antiquities.

“In 2010, while working on a contract at Lucasfilm preserving the last remaining full sets of Stormtrooper armor worn by Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford, we were contacted by representatives of Marvel who asked us to assist in designing both the helmet and shield for the new Captain America: The First Avenger film.

“Now we’re sharing those designs and many others used in the Marvel Universe of films.

“Over the course of the exhibit we’ll be showcasing costumes and props from Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Iron Man 2  and The Avengers.
We hope you’ll join us at The Cartoon Art Museum to get a close look at this rarely seen work.”
