The Art of Adventure – The Epic Adventure of Robert Batemenan and Bristol Foster
In 1957, world renowned wildlife artist, Robert Bateman and spirited biologist, Bristol Foster embark on an global expedition in a Land Rover called "The Grizzly Torque"- setting in motion a powerful story of environmental activism.
At its heart the film weaves together nature, art and activism showing how two very different men fought to protect the natural world: one thought art, the other through science. Now in their 90’s Bob and Bristol still find sanctuary in nature.
