yeah, saw this earlier today on my fb feed and was jealous of the west coast for the first time in a long while.

It reads like it will be a monster of an exhibition. I mean, his tech savvy work alone can take a whole exhibition and to see it paired with early and late work is going to be a total treat.

I will have to settle for a catalogue.

There was a similar version of this at lacma I believe and it was amazing. Ive loved Kubrick since I was a kid so it was pretty awesome to be close to so many of the pieces and behind the scenes pics.

Yes, this same exhibition has been around since 2004, and already traveled around the world a few times, so it is unsurprising that some people might have recollected seeing it pop up before.

Also Kubrick related, in recent news

Stanley Kubrick was planning children's film before his death



I think that this could have made quite an interesting project. A darker/more serious-toned story of Pinocchio, but still for children, similar to Collodi's original tale, would be a really interesting thing to see made. Not Švankmajer bizarre, mind you, but a really out there fantasy; something that I think I would love to see. I wonder what Kubrick would have brought to it. Like so many other projects never realised, sad to reflect that we will never know.
