The Sarasota premier of the documentary "Gray Matters" Eileen Gray Documentaryexamines the life of Eileen Gray, whose work in furniture, interior design and architecture was aptly described as a "rolling experiment through the decades."

Director Marco Orsini filmed interviews with the foremost Gray scholars, museum curators and collectors and takes us on location to Paris, London, New York, Richmond, Munich, Dublin and along the French Riviera. Including stunning interior footage filmed of the newly restored Villa E-1027, the film is an historical, scholarly and cinematic investigation of the career of one of the most influential but least known modernist icons.

Special Guest Speaker: Dr. Chelsea Bruner, Interior Design Historian, Ringling College of Art + Design
