Abstract

James Gleeson is one of Australia's most important artists. For more than six decades his work has explored the realms and possibilities of the Surrealist creed and sought to show that there exists, beyond the obvious and everyday, an alternative reality experienced through dreams, hallucinations, and differing mental states.

James Gleeson: beyond the screen of sight includes 80 paintings and works on paper, many of which have not been seen since their initial exhibition.  [Gallery media, 2005].
