[Luxus Magazine] Rediscovering Marilyn Monroe through her own objects

A new London event not to be missed! More than 60 years after her death, Marilyn Monroe is the focus of an exhibition bringing together 250 objects that once belonged to her. A collection of personal items assembled by a German collector.

 

Documentaries, films, immersive experiences… Marilyn Monroe has been told in many different ways over the decades. A talented actress with a sensual voice, she single-handedly embodied the golden age of Hollywood in the 1950s. A pop culture icon and sex symbol, her true identity has yet to be fully revealed. The mystery of Marilyn still galvanises the public today: who was she really? The new exhibition organised by the cultural institution Arches London Bridge provides some answers through objects that once belonged to the American star.

 

Marilyn Monroe, the exhibition

 

In all, no fewer than 250 objects from Marilyn Monroe’s personal world are on display at this London cultural venue. This intimate collection has been loaned by a German collector, Ted Stampfer, who has amassed no fewer than 1,500 pieces by the artist over the last 40 decades.
