With a from source build it works but not from the vtkpython binaries.
Reason is that we don't package Tk with the vtkpython binary.

We don't support Tkinter in our binaries currently. Nor do we have plans at this point. I'd recommend requesting this here: http://vtk.uservoice.com/forums/31508-general [^] if you are really interested in it.
