For the first time worldwide, the Deutsches Filmmuseum and the Deutsches Architektur Museum in Frankfurt am Main are presenting a major exhibition on the work of Stanley Kubrick, one of the most outstanding directors in film history.

In close cooperation with Christiane Kubrick and his long-standing executive producer, Jan Harlan, the inaccessible estate of the director has been catalogued.

Already during the preparatory phase, the project had evoked great interest among the public.

Actors who worked with Kubrick, for example, Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise and Sky du Mont and colleagues like Sidney Pollack, Steven Spielberg, Sir Arthur C. Clarke and Wendy Carlos are supporting the exhibition. Warner Bros, the key holder of the copyrights, is the first cooperation partner.

Kubrick planned his film projects down to the minutest detail. Therefore, the primary material itself is extensive indeed: costumes, props, technical material, photographs, film and numerous written documents are part of his estate.

After showing in Frankfurt am Main on March 31, the exhibition will be on show at further locations in Germany and abroad.
