Delve Into the Life and Work of Arthur Erickson at VIFF Centre, Nov. 15-23

The Goods from VIFF Centre

Vancouver, BC | Arthur Erickson: Beauty Between the Lines delves into the life and work of Arthur Erickson, a visionary architect first in Canada and ultimately throughout the world. With intimate interviews, unseen archival footage, and an exploration of his architectural masterpieces, the film weaves together the complexities of Erickson’s personal and professional life.

It reveals a man who transcended traditional boundaries, who fused art, culture, and nature and in the process, redefined modern architecture. This is the most complete account so far of the life and work of Canada’s greatest architect, the man responsible for several of the finest buildings in Vancouver – including the Museum of Anthropology and the SFU Campus on Burnaby Mountain.

The film, which premiered in Toronto this past October (23-26), is also screening at the upcoming Architecture & Design Film Festival (November 6-10). Although tickets for the Festival are already sold out, further screenings of Beauty Between the Lines will be showing at the VIFF Centre beginning on Friday, November 15th until Sunday, November 23rd.
