Produktbeschreibung
Chasing Dragons tells the story of one artist's quest for self-discovery and new modes of expression-inspiring the same spirit in his subjects and all those who encounter his work. Presented here is a stunning visual autobiography, chronicling more than five decades of artistic vision. In this impressive, autobiographical tour de force, artist Bill Hayward presents more than five decades of visual artwork alongside his own personal narrative-his musings on childhood experiences, moments of epiphany, and the fragments of literature that have inspired him along the way. Arranged in five acts, Chasing Dragons: An Uncommon Memoir in Photographs traces the evolution of Hayward's work-from traditional portraiture to increasingly abstract and altered images, figurative paintings, dance, performance, and film.
