Jim McVicker: A Way of Seeing
May 21 through July 12th


In the summer of 2008, the Norwegian filmmaker Petter Granrud decided to make a documentary about a true artist. This film is Granrud's exploration of Jim McVicker's world, and a tribute to his work.

We follow the painter as he works in the places he loves: The meadows, forest, harbors, the little weatherbeaten towns, and the ragged sea-cliffs of Humboldt County. Granrud strives for a deeper understanding of the bond between this remarkable artist and his astonishing native ground.
