About
Flowers Gallery presents 'William Crozier: Dance of the Living 1961-1974', an exhibition of paintings and drawings from a pivotal period in the artist's career. Profoundly affected by post-war existentialist philosophy, Crozier left behind the dark pastoral images that made his reputation and set out to create a contemporary image of the human condition through figure and landscape. His works of the 1960s and early 1970s drew on memories of horrific World War II newsreels and depictions of 'danses macabres', showing figures in heightened emotional states whose feelings streak into a traumatised, imagined landscape. The exhibition includes three of the earliest, visceral skeletal bust portraits and two previously unexhibited large-scale drawings.
