Arthur Erickson: Beauty Between the Lines

This event has passed

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.’
