Jan 18 – July 19, 2020

Storyboards, concept sketches, costumes (space suits and ape suits), test films, contact sheets, and Stargate-related photographs—it’s a 2001: A Space Odyssey extravaganza at the Museum of the Moving Image. Stanley Kubrick’s magisterial take on technology, humanity, infinity, and the concept of eternal return, released in 1968, was the sum of many precise parts, and here is a collection of them. For fans of Kubrick, movies, outer space, and sci-fi futurism, this is the show for you. —L.J.
