George Evans Review

In my time on holiday in ST. Ives we visited many galleries, the most memorable was the Tate. The Tate was showing a Brooklyn artist named Alex Katz. His art was the spark for the pop art craze and his portfolio spans over 6 decades back to the 50's. Katz used a lot of colour this helped enthasise his massive scale work. He painted both landscapes and portraits, and used quite complex subjects, but he paints them in quite a simple style. At first i found his work too bright and quite ugly, but as i looked at it it sort of grew on me.
