Book Description:
|
The loopy, cartoonish paintings of South African artist Ansel Krut (born 1959) revel in a joyous absurdity, conjuring up colorful whirlwinds of Bacon-esque mutations, disembodied protruding eyeballs and squashed or inflated humanoid forms. This volume assesses Krut's "abject portraiture" from 2004 to the present.
