Artist Profile -- John Frame: Three Fragments of a Lost Tale

John Frame's characters are not meant to live under glass.

The Southern California artist has created a world from wooden and found objects that seem to whisper to audience members as they step into the darkened gallery. His show "Three Fragments of a Lost Tale: Sculpture and Story by John Frame," opened Saturday at the Huntington Museum, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens.

Thanks for watching, everyone. I could study John Frame's sculptures and photographs every day for the next 100 years and see something different every time.
