Olivia Harrison and Martin Scorsese Event Highlights Release of New George Harrison Photo Book


The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) will host "THE THIRD EYE Olivia Harrison in conversation with Martin Scorsese" on Oct. 6 in conjunction with a new book featuring photos by George Harrison.

Details:

To celebrate the debut of THE THIRD EYE: Early Photographs, a new collection of more than 200 photos taken by singer, songwriter, and guitarist George Harrison as he toured the world with the Beatles from 1963 to 1969, join Olivia Harrison, George Harrison's widow and the curator of THE THIRD EYE, for an evening of intimate reminiscences and images that speak volumes. 

The iconic filmmaker Martin Scorsese joins Olivia for a conversation illustrated with George's photographs, exploring his unique artistic vision and the extraordinary moments they capture. Brimming with Harrison's wit, intelligence, and penchant for experimentation—he was into selfies long before the iPhone came along—the new book offers an intimate view of the long and winding road that took four talented lads from Liverpool to Ed Sullivan, Adelaide, Rishikesh, the Eiffel Tower, the beaches of Tahiti, and points beyond.

Scorsese has directed two Harrison-related documentaries: "George Harrison: Living in the Material World, from 2011, and "Beatles 64," from 2024.
