A new exhibition celebrating Wes Anderson’s new film Isle Of Dogs has opened at The Store X (on The Strand). Curated by Anderson himself, the exhibition presents the intricate sets that make up the city of Megasaki where the film is based, alongside the original puppets of the canine characters who live there and behind-the-scenes look at the director’s latest output.
It also features a life-size recreation of the film’s noodle bar (open midday to 6pm), serving ramen by Akira Shimizu - in the IRL noodle bar, executive chef at Soho’s Engawa restaurant - set against a background of the original score by Alexandre Desplat (who worked with Anderson on The Grand Budapest Hotel).
