Sketch for 'Masters of War'

Artist Statement: A lot of work went into this painted collage. For good reason. I spend a lot of time thinking about nature versus technology, and pictures of the latest war machines like drones and helicopter gunships really make me mad !

Wars kill a lot of people, but they also distract us from the REAL WAR we should all be fighting, against climate change and loss of habitat for so many endangered species. -Phil Clarke

Date: 2017
Condition: Excellent

CHG Director's Statement: From world renowned, high society artist Phil Clarke - who calls Salvador Dali a friend - comes this exciting new selection of surreal art. Just take Dali and Warhol, then add Robert Rauschenberg, and stir… VOILA! You’ve got the brilliant surreal-ness of Phil Clarke.

Allan Hogan, Introduction: Phil Clarke always has an entertaining and whimsical insight into the human condition. His creative and technical skills enable him to focus on the chaos of change in modern society and magically transform his subjects into new visions – a wry look at what’s happening right now.
The title of his latest exhibition is “Beyond Realism”, and very quickly Phil’s respect and admiration for the work of Salvador Dali is obvious. That’s not surprising, given that Phil lived for ten years in the Spanish village of Cadaques where Dali and his wife Gala entertained a passing parade of artists and hippies.
