Paley Center to Commemorate Warner Bros.’ 60-Year History

BURBANK: Warner Bros. Television Group and the Paley Center for Media are celebrating the 60-year legacy of the Hollywood studio with a new museum retrospective at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills.

The interactive, multimedia museum exhibit is called Television: Out of the Box. It will feature props, costumes, original animation art, patent filings and more from over 60 series from the studio. The exhibit will run for the next three years, getting refreshed from time to time. This exhibit represents the first time a major studio has teamed with the Paley Center to provide an interactive experience for television viewers.

“Television has played an important role in American popular culture over the last six decades and Warner Bros. is an important part of TV’s history,” said Barry Meyer, the chairman and CEO of Warner Bros., who began his career at the studio some 40 years ago in the television department. “I’m grateful to our partners at the Paley for providing the perfect environment for such an incredible exhibit. With all the memorable series represented here, everyone who loves television will be delighted, whether they’re already fans of these shows or discovering them for the first time.”
 
“Television: Out of the Box presents a major step for the Paley Center as it will bring a unique and unprecedented multimedia experience to the global community of media consumers,” added Pat Mitchell, the president and CEO of the Paley Center for Media. “The exhibit demonstrates our mission to celebrate and preserve television’s best while also illustrating the importance of media in all of our lives. Warner Bros., as one of television’s most successful and prolific studios, is an ideal partner for us to collaborate with in this exciting new venture.”
