Overview
In this diary of a month in Paris, the artist combines text and drawings to portray the city that acts as his muse. Even in the empty month of August, Adrian George infuses the city with freshness from a myriad of associations. Reality and imagination blend easily as the artist invites the reader to view the Paris he knows so well through his own transforming eye. The paintings and drawings of people, streets and cafes are, like the text, splashed with playful allusions to other artists. Underlying the carnival atmosphere is a keen sense of irony, which reminds reader and viewer that above all, the artist is a seer.Book Details
