“Inspired by his love of the heist film genre, Pittsburgh-based artist Lyndon Barrois Jr. (b. 1983) has created a never-to-be-realized film script featuring two museum conservators who may be forgers. The fictional script will come to life in the museum’s Forum Gallery, using the visual language of Hollywood—film stills, posters, sets, and props—among paintings, sculptures, and objects borrowed from both Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History. The exhibition presents a story in which visitors can enter a world of cinema, art, and history.”
