Glen Baxter Portrait

A portrait of English cartoonist, Glen Baxter whose surrealist, absurdist drawings are exhibited in the Eagle on 12th June 1994 in Clerkenwell, London, England. Born in Leeds in 1944, Baxter was trained at the Leeds College of Art. His images, and their corresponding captions, fuse art and language inspired by pulp fiction and adventure comics with intellectual jokes and references. Baxters art has been collected in numerous books, and his work has appeared in The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and The Independent on Sunday. His simple line-drawings often feature cowboys, gangsters, explorers, and schoolchildren, who utter incongruous intellectual statements regarding art and philosophy.
