To celebrate the milestone 95th birthday of artist Guy Warren in 2016, the S.H. Ervin Gallery is presenting an exhibition of works from the 1950s and 1960s, produced during his London years and soon after his return to Sydney.
The qualities of these works, with all their robustness combined with sonorous delicacy of his language in place, the obsession with emergence and submergence of the figure in relation to its background, the poetry of being is evident throughout his oeuvre to the present day. Curated by Barry Pearce, Emeritus curator Australian art, Art Gallery of New South Wales.
