Marilyn - The Exhibition in London
Discover the enduring fascination with Hollywood's timeless luminary, with the UK premiere of MARILYN. Launching in London this October, this exhibition offers a rare glimpse into the private world of Marilyn Monroe, the woman behind the icon.
From love letters, satin robes, timeless outfits to vintage shoes, make-up, and accessories, this meticulously curated collection of 250 extraordinarily personal objects from the exclusive private collection of Ted Stampfer, the world's largest collection of Marilyn Monroe's historical objects of this kind, unveils Marilyn as never before. Explore the beginnings of Norma Jeane Baker, her metamorphosis into the legendary Marilyn, her explosive rise to stardom, and her tragic death. Delve into the personal life of a woman whose influence transcended her silver screen fame.
Intellectually underestimated during her lifetime, this debut retrospective reflects on Marilyn as an astute businesswoman who challenged the male-dominated film industry and promoted racial and gender equality in the face of enormous adversity. Her remarkable complexity and enduring impact on art, culture, and society continue to resonate nearly 100 years since her birth.
Look beyond the bombshell and discover the real story of pop culture's most pioneering figure for a very limited run at MARILYN - The Exhibition at Arches London Bridge.
