LACMA's exhibition emphasizes the connections between some of Kubrick's films and specific works of art. Kubrick was a well-rounded filmmaker who drew inspiration from the broad cultural spectrum. Sometimes the visual references in his movies were deliberate, while at other times it is less clear who was influencing who. The exhibition provides a fascinating survey of the dialogue between Kubrick's filmography and the world of visual art.
