JapanThe Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, located in Los Angeles, aims to celebrate populist and commercial art forms often overlooked by mainstream institutions. While 'Star Wars,' created by George Lucas, is a significant part of the museum's identity, it occupies only 7% of the space. The museum showcases works from Lucas and his wife Mellody Hobson's collections, featuring pieces by artists such as Norman Rockwell and Maxfield Parrish. The museum, which opened to the public on September 22, highlights the importance of everyday artistic contributions and challenges traditional notions of high art. Lucas, who sold Lucasfilm to Disney in 2012, expressed pride in the museum's completion after years of planning and location rejections.
