Wes Anderson, with his 11th film, ironically evokes social fears (nuclear disaster) and individual (loneliness), combining science fiction and the spirit of Broadway with the great plastic strength and compositional quality that have always characterized his works.
The exhibition will show through immersive installations original sets, props, models, costumes, and works of art in the film, allowing visitors to dive into the aesthetics dominating the imagination of Anderson, always linked to the Foundation. It was Anderson to design the Foundation’s café, Bar Luce, while his successful exhibition “The Spitzmaus Mummy and Other Treasures” was held here in 2019.
