TR "Event Horizon" Print

Founder of S.A.A.A.M (Scottish abstract action art movement), a small, exclusive group of Scottish artists based on the west coast, aged from 21 to 67 years old. GaGa, the "tag" of the senior artist has been performing his art for over 45 years, mainly for his own satisfaction,and usually paints over his paintings repeatedly; as like others, he regards the performance being the art,and the product as only a record of the performance. Not born in Scotland, he has been a visitor here for over 50 years, finally moving to Argyll 12 years ago. in 2012 he was persuaded to let others see what he was doing. he sometimes doesn't name the pictures,as he says they are to elicit thoughts and emotions dependent on the viewer. though those shown here have been named by him; family and friends are often asked to offer a name. His math is better than Pollock and his imagination as good as Dubuffet. He hopes to complete, at least, another 100 productions, before his granddaughters observation, ref. "value of paintings to death" becomes true!
