Light and Movement Portrayed: The Art of Anthony Poon

From pure reds to salmon pinks, subtle violets to ultramarine blues, Anthony Poon's brightly coloured works capture the full spectrum of the rainbow, and reflect an abstract artist's relationship with the basic components of art: line, form and colour. A prolific and successful artist during his lifetime with an artistic oeuvre that includes painting and sculpture, Anthony Poon was awarded the 1991 Cultural Medallion Award for his significant contribution to the development of Singapore art. This monograph includes essays that provide insights into Poon's practice, ideas and materials as well as a biographical timeline and bibliography.
