The Eye of the Storm is a documentary film about GSA alumnus James Morrison.
James Morrison is widely recognised as one of Britain’s finest landscape artists. His work hangs in museums, and private collections around the world. As the documentary opens, Morrison faces his greatest challenge:
his eyesight is fading fast, and he has one more major painting to complete. From his studio just outside Montrose, Morrison can hear the crashing North Sea. On the wall is a drawing of Mickey Mouse he completed when he was 8 years old, at the outset of World War II.
The film screening in Beijing is being sponsored by the British Embassy with assistance from GSA Beijing Office.
At the events there will be a brief opportunity to find out about the painting programme at GSA.
