'Daydreaming with Stanley Kubrick' | Somerset House, by Feral Things on Jul 11, 2016 21:37:53 GMT 1, An exhibition entitled 'Daydreaming with Stanley Kubrick' has just opened at Somerset House in London which showcases work by contemporary artists, filmmakers and musicians who have been inspired by Stanley Kubrick.
The exhibition includes work by Philip Castle (who designed the film poster for A Clockwork Orange and also Bowie's Aladdin Sane album cover), Paul Insect (whose 'Clockwork Britain' references the original book cover and draws a line between the dystopia that the book foreshadowed and the 2011 London riots), Polly Morgan (whose piece draws a phallic line between Alex the Droog's pet snake and his iconic codpiece) and Invader (whose Rubik Kubrick Clockwork Orange piece is included in the exhibition). On the none-Clockwork Orange front, Peter Kennard's piece references Dr Strangelove and there's also work by Futura, Harland Miller and Sarah Lucas. Interestingly, the exhibition doesn't include any work by Nick Walker who did the graffiti and street backdrops for Eyes Wide Shut.
The exhibition is curated by James Lavelle from UNKLE/Mo Wax and it runs until 24 August.

'Daydreaming with Stanley Kubrick' | Somerset House, by jusdeep on Jul 12, 2016 6:10:28 GMT 1, Popped along to the exhibition yesterday. Got to be the best show of the year so far for me. The Haroon Mirza & Anish Kapoor was mesmerizing - could have spent the whole afternoon in that one room. Such a great line-up of artists and a very well conceived show which really does play with all your senses. Changes in temperature, sound, light, visuals, smell. Could not recommend it enough.
Any idea what Thomas Bangalter made? Flashback - the Thomas Bangalter room was a short film. Camera A, Scene 136, Take 1, 2005-2016. I think a scene from Daft Punk's Electroma.
