This was the first exhibition in the world about the life and work of film director Stanley Kubrick.

Stanley Kubrick (1928‒99): American film director, screenwriter and producer, one of the greatest artists of world cinema. His artistic interests began with photography; subsequently, he made documentary films. He made his feature film debut with a low-budget war thriller, Fear and Desire (1953), then, for the crime picture Killer’s Kiss (1955), he founded his own production company, thus establishing his independence. During this first period he made The Killing (1956), followed by the controversially received Paths of Glory (1957), a bitter pacifist war drama. He was hired by Kirk Douglas to direct Spartacus (1960, four Oscars), an ambitious superproduction about the leaders of a slave rebellion. Following the film, Kubrick left the United States and settled in the UK, but continued to make movies for the Hollywood studios. Thus emerged Lolita (1962), an adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov’s scandalous novel, and a black comedy about the Cold War, Dr Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). The triumph of the latter film enabled Kubrick to carry out one of his most courageous projects, the spectacular philosophical science-fiction film 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968).
