The Editor

We all have in mind the sweet and smooth voice of Marilyn Monroe when she sings her legendary "Happy birthday, Mr. President" to President John F. Kennedy on May 19, 1962. An icon of fashion, film, and music, she left a mark on her time with her talent, grace, and beauty. Sixty years after her death, the blonde-haired star continues to inspire entire generations with her success and determination. From October 21 to January 14, 2024, the actress will once again be honored at Galerie Joseph as part of "L'Expérience Monroe," a unique immersive exhibition. Get ready to take a leap into the 1950s and step into the daily life of this extraordinary woman. ![Marilyn Monroe](https://uploads.lebonbon.fr/source/7S.Sphyras.JPG) © S.Sphyrasmovement of the most mythical character in Hollywood!


An exhibition in several stages
 

For this exhibition, things have been done on a grand scale! Through a graphic novel, a series of photographs captured by Milton Greene, and a sound, music, and visual installation, we discover the star from a whole new perspective. For a few moments, the world of glitz and glamour of the one who represents the Hollywood myth fades away to make room for the dreamy and ambitious woman hiding behind the character.

In the Memory Box, we witness the evolution of the young Marilyn whose dream is to become an actress. Her face, her voice... Thanks to a.Virtual reality headset, the late star is by our side, as if she had never left us.


Marilyn on stage

Among the different stages of the exhibition, a theater piece based on the only autobiographical text written by Marilyn Monroe, Unfinished Confession, will be offered to visitors. Childhood, the reality of the film world, relationships between men and women... Stéphanie Sphyras embodies, on stage, a Norma Jeane Baker in all simplicity, far from the spotlights.
