Julie Taymor

Julie Taymor is one those rare artists that few really dispute is a genius (Chris Ware is another one), even if they pick apart her work (it's probably true she hasn't made her masterpiece just yet). Have you seen Titus!? She also did Frida, of course, but she has done some mind-melting puppet-based stuff including the original production of the Lion King. She is the complete designer/director, bringing a singular vision to costumes, sets and storytelling.
