How can we recreate in a scenographic exhibition the unique atmosphere that characterizes the masterpieces of filmmaker Stanley Kubrick? This is a major challenge that Marina Willer and her London team have chosen to take up. In the premises of the London Design Museum, visitors are invited as from next month to visit the  centrifuge set of 2001: Space Odyssey, to trample on the carpet of The Shining, or to discover new rushs shot by the filmmaker and kept in the cinema archive until then. Between dream and nightmare, this retrospective exhibition promises a journey through space and time.
