Michael Jackson: A Musical Legacy Special New Exhibit at The Grammy Museum
On Oct. 27, 2009 The GRAMMY Museum unveiled its newest special exhibit, Michael Jackson: A Musical Legacy. Residing on the Museum's fourth floor, the exhibit serves as a follow-up to the earlier Michael Jackson: HIStyle exhibit, which opened in February 2009, and the temporary memorial display, erected just after the King of Pop's passing.
"The overwhelming response to our earlier exhibits speaks to Jackson's unparalleled place in music history and the public's deep connection to his music," said Executive Director Robert Santelli. "We're excited to share even more of Jackson's life and legacy with his fans and we hope it serves as a fitting tribute to one of the most significant entertainers in music history."
Including Jackson's trademark fedora and gloves, six elaborately embellished jackets, original lyrics, a Jackson 5 stage costume, and more, the exhibit will include additional artifacts never before exhibited in a museum. Across eight video monitors, visitors will also enjoy footage of Jackson's appearances on the annual GRAMMY® Awards, as well as never-before-seen video of some of Jackson's famous friends sharing their memories of him.
Perhaps the most exciting element, the exhibit will feature a new interactive experience which will allow visitors to dance on a floor of light-up tiles, mimicking Jackson's own moves in the "Billie Jean" music video. Michael Jackson: A Musical Legacy will remain on display through summer 2010.
Santelli and The GRAMMY Museum also curated Michael Jackson: The Official Exhibition, the Arts and Exhibitions International exhibit opening at The O2 bubble in London today.
The GRAMMY Museum is located at 800 West Olympic Boulevard, Suite A245, Los Angeles, CA 90015. With an entrance off of Figueroa Street, the Museum resides within the L.A. LIVE campus, at the intersection of Olympic Boulevard and Figueroa Street in downtown Los Angeles.

Posted by Moonwalker4Life on Nov 03, 2009 at 3:58 PMThat sounds really cool, but I don't live in California, heck, I live on the other side of the country! So I won't be able to see it. (*sigh*). BUT, when I'm grown up, maybe I'll just take me a little trip for fun down there to L.A. and I wanna see where Michael is buried AND that special exhibit!

Posted by janice20052 on Nov 06, 2009 at 6:50 PMI had the pleasure of visiting the museum a few days ago. It was absolutely wonderful! I could not believe I was seeing the outfits that he wore up close. Also, the floor that was used in Billie Jean is there. You can get on it and dance and it lights up like it did in the video. If you think that you can copy Mike's moves, you may want to check it out.

Posted by sheeba on Nov 08, 2009 at 8:33 PMMy sister just saw the exhibit in London and said it was outstanding. She also saw the Thriller Live show in the West End. I wish Thriller Live was being performed on Broadway. I guess it'll come eventually but I want to see it NOW! Looks like I need to plan an MJ trip to London.
