Crouan, William Crozier, Lund Humphries, Aldershot, 2007, p. 188, illustrated pl.172'Garden Storm (2005) has a similar kind of nourishing formal simplification, though it employs a more robustly sculptural approach in transforming an imagery of palm trees, swimming pool, brown ground and black sky into living emblems of some deeper psychic reality. The exhilaratingly charged yet threatening atmosphere is as much emotional as it is physically palpable. The contrast between the bright swimming-pool blue and pitch-black sky may seem to indicate some kind of symbolic counterpoint being made between living waters of life and what may appear to be a terrible, potentially even a deathly storm. Yet the reality here is that once the storm is over, the pool of life will have been replenished.' (Philip Vann in K. Crouan, William Crozier, Lund Humphries, Aldershot, 2007, p. 43)This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
