Greg Curnoe’s works were always personal and particular, a fusion of his art and his life, laced with humour, irony, and an anti-establishment attitude. From painting to assemblage, rubber stamping to collage, small and intimate to the truly monumental, his oeuvre is astonishing in its breadth and depth. At the same time, the autobiographical nature of his work means that it features many reappearing ideas, concerns, and approaches.
