Book Description:
|
Taking collaged newspaper for his canvas, Tony Swain paints landscapes and abstracted patterns, fastening his works directly onto the gallery walls, to create an effect that verges on newsprint sculpture. The layers of newspaper text and imagery blend and interlock with Swain's acrylic strokes, creating wonderfully elusive images that oscillate in and out of comprehension. This elegantly produced monograph surveys recent works.
