Hamilton Premiere: The Art of Adventure – Q&A with Robert Bateman, Bristol Foster & director Alison Reid
Head to the Playhouse Cinema on April 10th for Hamilton’s premiere of The Art of Adventure, featuring a special Q&A session with Robert Bateman, Bristol Foster & director Alison Reid!
The Art of Adventure is an inspiring and deeply human documentary about the extraordinary lifelong friendship between world renowned wildlife artist Robert Bateman and fearless biologist Bristol Foster. Through their epic 1957 journey around the world – armed with a 16mm camera and an artist’s brush – the film opens a vivid window onto a planet once wild and unscarred and a bond formed through curiosity, courage and love of nature.
At its heart the film weaves together nature, art and activism showing how two very different men fought to protect the natural world: one thought art, the other through science. Now in their 90’s Bob and Bristol still find sanctuary in nature. Their story is a moving reflection on legacy, mortality and the wisdom of our elders – and a reminder that humanity and nature are inseparable. The Art of Adventure invites us to listen, to learn and to embrace life with curiosity, courage and heart.
