Popsters and Celebrities
Harold Town was a master of many mediums. As a draftsman, he is compared to Picasso. As a painter, his first abstract expressionist works garnered for him immense acclaim. His collages and assemblages are monumental. And it is as a printmaker that he won his first international art prizes.
A movie buff, Town created a series of drawings: Silent Stars, Sound Stars, Film Stars, many of which were included in a book by that title. Town also created a stunning suite of lithographs titled Popsters and Celebrities, of his all-time favourites: Joan Crawford; Charlie Chaplin; Clark Cable and pop icons: Yoko Ono; John Lennon; and Mick Jagger, among dozens of others.
