Before he began his career as a director of iconic films we love, like Spartacus, Dr. Strangelove, 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Shining and Full Metal Jacket, New York City native Stanley Kubrick was a photographer. He sold his first image to LOOK magazine in 1945 at the age of 17, and continued to work as a New York City-based photographer for the magazine until 1950.
Curators at the Museum of the City of New York and VandM have gone through more than 10,000 of Kubrick’s negatives and made 25 prints available for purchase that were previously only available for viewing at archives or magazines.
