Martin Scorsese: The Exhibition

Monterrey, Mexico

Scorsese opened his personal archive for “Martin Scorsese: The Exhibition,” the first international exhibition devoted to his work, which debuted in 2013 at Deutsche Kinemathek — Museum für Film und Fernsehen in Berlin. It will open March 22 at MARCO (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Monterrey) in Monterrey, Mexico, where it will run through July 15.

The exhibition explores the central setting of most of his films: New York City, particularly the Little Italy neighborhood where Scorsese grew up. Exhibits also explore his work as a film connoisseur and preservationist and his directorial aesthetics and techniques.

Visitors will see storyboard sketches, props from films such as “Raging Bull,” costumes worn by Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, and historic film posters from Scorsese’s private collection.

Stanley Kubrick Exhibition

Frankfurt, Germany

It’s difficult to say which of Stanley Kubrick’s films is most famous. Maybe it’s “2001: A Space Odyssey,” or perhaps his 1980 film “The Shining,” starring Jack Nicholson. But visitors can learn about all his works — famous, infamous and otherwise — during a retrospective developed in collaboration with Kubrick’s estate and the German Film Museum in Frankfurt, Germany.

The exhibition will return to Frankfurt for the museum’s special exhibition celebrating the 50th anniversary of “2001: A Space Odyssey” that will run March 21 through September. In October, the complete Kubrick exhibition will travel to a venue in Spain, where it will be on display until March 2019.

Visitors can wander through a replica of the Korova Milk Bar from “A Clockwork Orange” and see Jack’s infamous typewriter from “The Shining,” as well as the baby-blue dresses worn by the movie’s haunting sisters.
