Marilyn
From 10:00 to 17:00 from 30 May until 25 October
Exhibition
Leer in Forum Groningen de vrouw achter de mythe Marilyn Monroe kennen. Want zelfs honderd jaar na haar geboorte heeft Marilyn een onmiskenbare en tijdloze aantrekkingskracht.
Inspiratie
Wat maakt dat sterren van nu – Beyoncé, Kim Kardashian en Rihanna – nog altijd door haar worden geïnspireerd? De expositie Marilyn onderzoekt deze vraag en geeft bezoekers de zeldzame kans om kleding, persoonlijke bezittingen, brieven, foto’s en filmbeelden van dichtbij te zien. Het resultaat is een intiem en veelzijdig portret van hét Hollywood-icoon.
Filmcarrière
Norma Jean Baker, zoals Marilyns echte naam luidt, speelde in meerdere Hollywoodfilms, zoals How to Marry a Millionaire, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes en The Seven Year Itch. In die laatste film komt de befaamde scène met de opwaaiende jurk voor.
Persoonlijke bezittingen
Na Monroe’s overlijden bleven haar spullen jarenlang zorgvuldig opgeborgen. Pas 37 jaar later kwamen ze op een veiling terecht. Verzamelaar Ted Stampfer kocht een groot deel van deze objecten, en juist deze bijzondere vondsten komen naar Groningen.
Achter de mythe
Marilyn had vele gezichten waarin mensen zich nog steeds kunnen herkennen. Deze expositie laat de vrouw achter de mythe zien. Marilyn Monroe was meer dan een sekssymbool en stijlicoon. Haar leven kende activisme, mysterie, tragedie en eenzaamheid, en haar invloed als wereldwijd popcultuuricoon is tot op de dag van vandaag voelbaar.
