Stanley Kubrick: The Exhibition- A Little Taste

Spread the love

There’s never really been a shortage of film-related stuff to do in London town, but rare is the occasion when a Stanley Kubrick showcase this intricate, expansive and accessible comes to our doorstep. But now thanks to the Deutsches Filminstitut & Filmmuseum, Jan Harlan and the University of the Arts London, several film studios and the Kubrick family, you can experience the genesis of some of the most iconic design aesthetics in film history, and the visual inspiration for one of the greatest bodies of work ever committed to celluloid.

The exhibit is divided into sections corresponding to Kubrick’s films, where you can catch more than a glimpse of iconic film props, costumes, concept art, on-set photos and some rather amusing correspondence from the man himself—not to mention taking a break to watch some of the scenes from his most celebrated movies in one of several mini screening rooms.

Here’s a little taste to whet your appetite, before you quench your thirst with the ole’ Moloko plus, with Vellocet.

Speaking of which, “Viddy well, little brother. Viddy well.”

 

“The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir.”

 

“All work and no play . . . “

 

“Gentlemen you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room.”

 

“I’m Spartacus!”

 

“I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

 

And if you’re looking for a reminder of the movie magic this all helped to create, you can take a seat and briefly bear witness to the genius of Kubrick.

 

That’s just a morsel of what’s on offer, so head down to The Design Museum on Kensington High Street for the full meal, it’s a real horror show my little droogies, but make sure to book here and select your slot as it will get busy. ‘Stanley Kubrick: The Exhibition is on until the 15th of September 2019.
