This survey catalogue of the American figurative painter, his first in London since 2000, will highlight key aspects of the artist's oeuvre from the 1950s until his death in 2004.§His paintings from the 1950s depict universal images of man and reference the classical figure found in antiquity, while his highly political series of the 1970s and '80s draws on the Vietnam War, American foreign policy and the rise of paramilitary soldiers in places such as South Africa and Latin America. His work from the 1990s incorporates slogans, text, graffiti and symbols into dystopian scenes of urban existence. sakriti opis
