posted on by Andrew Osmond
The author Helen McCarthy will deliver a lecture on "The Art History of Studio Ghibli" on Tuesday June 20 at 7.30 p.m. The venue is Juju's Bar and Stage in London (map), and tickets are also available for a livestream of the event. The talk will be followed by Q&A.
The lecture is described as follows:
"... There's a lot more to Studio Ghibli than just movies. Its art is driven by inspiration from Japanese and Western art, by energies from the streets of Japan and by the mystical qualities of its traditions and its wild places.
"Helen McCarthy, who wrote the first books in English on anime and on Ghibli's co- founding director Hayao Miyazaki, will take you on a journey through the studio's history and inspiration, with time and space to appreciate selected artworks and a list of sources – books, websites and places to visit - if you want to explore further."
