Estación Zhivago: A Photographic Exhibition Commemorating Doctor Zhivago's Epic Filming History in Madrid

This photographic exhibition commemorates the 60th anniversary of the filming of 'Doctor Zhivago' in Spain. It showcases images, some previously unseen, from the movie's production, focusing on its time at the Madrid Delicias station and other locations. The exhibition also includes artifacts, press materials, and testimonies from those involved in the production.

Commemorating six decades since Hollywood chose Spain, specifically Soria and Madrid, for the epic production of 'Doctor Zhivago,' this exhibition delves into the film's enduring legacy. Titled 'Estación Zhivago. 60 años de un rodaje épico,' the show presents a collection of photographs, many appearing for the first time, capturing moments from the film's shooting. These visuals highlight scenes filmed at the Madrid Delicias station on July 30, 1965, as well as other locations such as the Madrid neighborhood of Canillas and the Soria station, and the film's premiere in Madrid. Beyond the large-format photographs, largely drawn from the EFE Agency archive, the exhibition enriches the visitor experience with a diverse array of materials. These include objects used during the filming, period publicity and press documents, and correspondence from writer Miguel Delibes, who served as supervisor for the Spanish dialogue adaptation. The exhibition also features a video compilation of testimonies from notable figures such as film director and writer Víctor Matellano, journalist and writer Jesús Marchamalo, script supervisor Ricardo Huertas, and extra Alfonso Linos, offering firsthand accounts of the filming process.

The exhibition is open from July 9 to October 28. Visitors are advised to check for specific closing dates, such as September 13-14 and October 11-12.
