The Lawrence Arts Center and Lawrence Modern present an evening of film and conversation to celebrate mid century design as seen in the 1985 film Brazil. Introduction by KU Design Professor Tim Hossler.
Run time: 2 hour 22 minutes
ABOUT THE FILM
Imagine a world somewhere between a David Lynch fever dream and an industrial design nightmare. That’s Brazil (1985), Terry Gilliam’s bizarre, wonderfully inventive film about the superficiality of consumerism and the crushing weight of totalitarian control.
ABOUT LAWRENCE MODERN
Lawrence Modern’s mission is to raise awareness of midcentury and modern architecture in Lawrence and promote its preservation to ensure that future generations will have significant examples to appreciate and/or to live in.
This screening is made possible by support from Lawrence Modern founder, Tom Harper with Stephens Real Estate.
