This lusciously illustrated tome plumbs the width and depth of Frizzell’s extensive and successful career. It includes many of his images inspired by popular culture (who can forget the controversy of the Four Square grocer with a tiki head), through to the realistic landscapes, images borrowed from the world of advertising and comics, through to his figure painting – it is all here. His wry sense of humour shines out in every work.
Frizzell writes engagingly of his personal life and the art that populates and shapes his world. The text is minimal, letting the images speak for themselves. Included is a short foreword by Hamish Keith.
This beautiful book of an important and popular New Zealand artist would be an excellent addition to any collection and an excellent resource for secondary art students.
