Volume Seven:
Stanley Kubrick
A Limited Edition
Art Publication.
“I do not always know what I want, but I do know what I don't want.”
The seventh volume examines the films of Stanley Kubrick as works of precision, control, and enduring provocation. Across genres, Kubrick’s cinema interrogates power, violence, technology, and the limits of human systems.
Curated by Layered Butter, this volume presents original artwork and essays that engage with Kubrick’s formal rigor, thematic obsessions, and lasting influence—approaching his films not as untouchable monuments, but as living texts open to interpretation.
