Part of the Art On Screen Series presented in partnership with Park City Library.
Underwritten by Julie Hopkins, Keller Williams Real Estate.
This is the first UK film biography of the world-renowned Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), whose print 'The Great Wave' is as globally famous as Leonardo's 'Mona Lisa'.
This fascinating cinema event is a groundbreaking documentary and exclusive private view of the British Museum exhibition "Hokusai: beyond the Great Wave."
Hokusai spent his life studying and celebrating our common humanity as well as deeply exploring the natural and spiritual worlds, using the famous volcano Mount Fuji as a protective presence and potential source of immortality. He knew much tragedy, was struck by lightning and lived for years in poverty, but never gave up his constant striving for perfection in his art. Hokusai is an artist who influenced Monet, Van Gogh and other Impressionists, is the father of manga and the only painter with his own emoji.
