| has gloss | eng: Throwing Curves : Eva Zeisel is a 2002 documentary film directed by Jyll Johnstone. The film follows and interviews then-97-year-old Hungarian industrial designer and ceramic artist Eva Zeisel. It examines how her upbringing, fame, and personality have influenced her work and reputation to the present day. Zeisel narrates her own history, including her escape from both the Soviet Union and Nazi-annexed Austria, as family members, friends, and relevant experts offer insights into her character. Alternating between archival footage and video interviews, the film explores how Zeisels personal life has shaped the development of her work, which is on display in the Museum of Modern Art and other museums around the world. Zeisels age is a key theme of the film, and several interviewees comment on her unusual industriousness and innovation for an elderly woman. |
