Architecture+Design Film Festival: Glenn Murcutt – Spirit of Place

Wed, April 18 / 9 pm
Directed by Catherine Hunter
2017, Australia, 59 min

This film explores the life and work of Australia’s most celebrated architect. The film sheds light on Murcutt’s exquisitely modern yet environmentally sensitive approach to design, and his relationship with a special community of clients and collaborators as his design for a unique mosque comes to fruition.

The Architecture+Design Film Festival (adff.ca) is co-presented by the Winnipeg Architecture Foundation and Cinematheque and is sponsored by Canada Council, Manitoba Association of Architects, University of Manitoba and Urban Idea.

Sponsored by JRWagner Architect.

Reviews

An intimate account of the architect’s life, which is interwoven with the profound story behind his latest and most challenging project – a mosque in Melbourne’s Newport. For architect and non-architect alike, Murcutt and his work ethic is beyond inspiring, and it is clear to see why he is as revered as he is..A man with a fascinating, and at times heartbreaking, life story.
-Sara Kirby, Australian Design Review.
