Stanley Kubrick Archive - University of the Arts

Archives open days
In celebration of the Stanley Kubrick season on Channel 4, we are holding a number of public open days at the University of the Arts London's Archives and Special Collections Centre. Spaces are limited and therefore booking is essential. The dates and times are as follows:
Monday 21 July at 6.30pm and 7.15pm
Wednesday 23 July at 2pm, 2.45pm and 3.45pm
To book a place please e-mail archive-enquiries@arts.ac.uk or telephone 0207 514 9333.
Archives and Special Collections is based at LCC. Directions and map

Please note these opportunities are for members of the public, unaffiliated with the Univesity of the Arts London. Staff and students of the University will have further opportunities to see the archives on future University open days which are held regularly.

Also to accompany the Channel 4's season The Sunday Telgraph have written a number of pieces which relate to or use archive items extensively. The first installment was published in the Home and Living magazine on Sunday 6th July and can be seen at: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/arts/main.jhtml?xml=/arts/2008/07/07/bfkubrick107.xml

There will be a further feature using archive materials in next Sunday Telegraph's 'Seven' magazine.

As I am sure you are all aware the archive also features as collection of the month on the Archives Hub:

These features are all part of a programme of events and publicity around the 80th anniversary of Kubrick's birth and the 40th anniverrsary of the release of his masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey.
