Oscars’ green room gets an Oscar-winner’s touch: Sarandon to curate backstage photo exhibit

Who better than a five-time Oscar nominee and best-actress winner to help decorate the backstage green room at the Academy Awards?

Architectural Digest says Susan Sarandon will collaborate with designer David Rockwell on a photo installation inside the Oscars’ green room on March 2.

The 67-year-old actress is working with the veteran architect and designer to curate a digital display of images honouring movie heroes and Oscar history. They are also selecting the film stills inside the stars-only space, where nominees and presenters hang out before or after taking the stage.

Rockwell designed the Oscar stage twice, for the shows in 2009 and 2010. Sarandon won the best actress Oscar for 1995’s “Dead Man Walking.”
