"The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art explores how artists depict the essential myths that help us make sense of the world. These shared stories, told over and over in many forms, bind us together and define our human experience."
"The museum attempts to live up to its name by tracing the full evolution of humanity's image-based storytelling culture, spanning ancient sculptures, Renaissance paintings, photographs, and a healthy dose of comics."
The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, opening on September 22, 2026, in Los Angeles, features over 1,200 objects across 30 galleries. Designed by Ma Yansong, the museum emphasizes the evolution of image-based storytelling, including ancient sculptures and modern comics. It includes thematic galleries on concepts like love and adventure, as well as exhibitions focused on individual 20th-century artists. The museum is supported by George Lucas's extensive collection of illustrator art, showcasing renowned artists such as N.C. Wyeth and Norman Rockwell.
