About the Film:

A Place in the World explores the career of artist Garth Evans through a

60-year arc of restless creativity and surprising turns of fate. Garth’s work is infused with visual and tactile acuity, his social commitment and his uniquely self-deprecating humour. The film takes us from his working-class childhood in the UK, through his celebrated impact in the British art world, to his distinguished career in the USA. In the explosive creativity of the 1970s, he helped develop radical teaching methods that are still studied today. A Place in the World is an opportunity to see through Garth’s eyes and the amazing evolution of objects small and

large that he’s made with his hands. It’s about the challenge of finding new territories to explore, and the complex conversation between an artist and those who experience the work. Finally, it’s about a deep dedication to creativity and a life well lived.
