Summary |
"James Gleeson is regarded as the foremost Australian Surrealist painter and poet. His career spans from 1938 to present day, and encompasses works created in response to wartime, the haunting and beautiful 'Garden' paintings, his heroic 'psychoscapes' and experimental collages, and the msot recent 'cosmic' paintings which explore the undercurrents within the subconcious mind." -- Book jacket |
