Still perhaps the most intense and bonkers movie of all movies, 2001: A Space Odyssey revolutionized science fiction and the art of cinema, and changed up everything we know or thought about film with its special effects, narrative style, philosophical heft, and wild musical choices. Fifty years after its conception, TASCHEN presents the most exhaustive publication ever devoted to 2OO1: A Space Odyssey. Limited to 1,500 copies, this landmark edition has been made in exclusive collaboration with both the Kubrick Estate and Warner Bros. This richly illustrated four-volume set features hundreds of previously unpublished documents and photographs, as well as personal testimony from Kubrick’s co-screenwriter Arthur C. Clarke. All hardcover volumes are presented in a sleek metal slipcase inspired by the famous monolith, and come boxed with exclusive cover art from Wayne Haag.
