No Blank Spaces: Grammy Museum tells a Taylor Swift love story
There’s no bad blood between Taylor Swift and the Grammy Museum.
The venue is hosting a special pop-up exhibit, “I Can See You (Taylor’s Version)” through Monday, Sept. 18, in the fourth-floor theater gallery.
The exhibit immerses the visitor into the world of Swift’s recent “I Can See You (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault)” music video, with a display of 11 costumes and two instruments.
The costumes were all worn during Swift’s original “Speak Now” era. The music video for “I Can See You (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault)” features actors Joey King and Taylor Lautner breaking Swift out of a museum vault while Presley Cash waits in the getaway car — a symbolic representation of how it has felt for Swift to have her fans help her reclaim her music.
Swift wrote and directed the music video, realizing her dream of directing fight scenes and a heist storyline, with help from director of pH๏τography, Jonathan Sela, ASC.
The exhibit started when Swift played multiple shows at SoFi Stadium.
“We had a Taylor Swift exhibit in 2015,” said Kelsey Goelz, ᴀssociate curator, Grammy Museum.
“It’s fun to have a new exhibit about her. It’s 13 artifacts — 13 is her favorite number. It pops up in all of her secret Easter eggs.”
The items are:
• Swift’s vintage lace dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s Eric Winterling dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s custom REEM ACRA dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s Valentino gown from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s Jenny Packham dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s Susan Hilferty dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
• Swift’s Jenny Packham dress from her “Speak Now” Tour
