    Go Figure HC (2025 FB) Figurative Social Surrealist Paintings 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing. Art and cover by Guy Colwell. Go Figure collects 44 social surrealist figurative paintings, spanning 1987–2023. All are in eye-popping color: many depict a crowd in observational tableaux, each figure a character by virtue of dress, body language, and interactions with each other, animals, and their setting. Other paintings reflect Colwells wide travels, and still others are surreal — such as Junior and the Legs (2023), which shows a young man strumming a guitar on stage, accompanied by disembodied womens limbs. Each image has a narrative and a moral purpose—often, one figure bravely moves forward, despite a hostile crowd. In Guy Colwells world, no individual could ever be an island, just another part of a rich ecosystem.Thematically, then, it is fitting that this book was made possible by a group of his collectors, who are sponsoring the show/Guy Colwell retrospective Imaginary Reality, from which this book is created, in an independent space. Go Figure is in an 11 X 11 format, to best feature the high-quality reproductions of these numerous critically praised works. Hardcover, 11-in.x 11-in., 96 pages, full color. Mature Readers Cover price $29.99.
