Hello! I've just received from your colleague at the store in Venice
the documents, the invoices about your collaboration with Stanley Kubrick's production
for Eyes Wide Shut
the documnets are perfect
I assure you, at this point, our interests and availability
to produce a little documentary, a report on the work that
I would say that the idea to produce or to tell the story
that there was behind the production of the masks of "Eyes Wide Shut"
surfaced a few years ago, and that, at the time, studying at the university,
I got to read a book by a French critic named Michel Ciment
who had interviewed Kubrick several times.
The ferry? Either the number 1 or the number 2
The idea to make the masks was born in the '80s when the Venetian Carnival
had started to be popular again. Actually, the people made it popular
and the events they were doing every year.
And I tried, around '80-'82, to make some masks but they turned out to be dreadful rubbish!
It wasn't the right time. So, I continued to study and look around
There, then, obviously, was one of the important aspects that fascinated me
already as a spectator and then as a lover of the Kubrick's work. There was the charm
that emanated from the mask worn by Tom Cruise in the film
In other words, these masks, which are simpler, are actually more complex.
Here, from this one was born this other one. So, let's say this one was decorated
with macrame and crackled
Jan Harlan was here around the end of June 1997 and took the masks
which he had selected in our store. The first time was June 27, 1997,
then July 4, 1997, and finally September 18, 1997.
