George Morrison had an art career that spanned several decades and two continents. He taught at the prestigious Rhode Island School of Design and studied abroad for several years. But he always came back to Minnesota’s North Shore. Producer Allison Herrera explores the world of one of Minnesota’ s most important artists.

When George Morrison was ten, he was living away from his Chippewa (Ojibwe) community in Minnesota’s Arrowhead, convalescing in a children’s hospital and working on his art. That child became one of America’s great post-war abstract artists. MN90's Britt Aamodt reports.
