presents:
"Dangerous"
Paintings from the Uban Jungle by Philip Swarbrick

On-Line Gallery Available

Dangerous is a series of oil paintings by the South African artist Philip Swarbrick. They are the culmination of a journey of self-discovery that began on the beaches of Durban in the 1960’s and ends in the backstreets of London.

Swarbrick incorporates his experience of being gay in apartheid South Africa and explores the hidden world of hedonistic sadism. It is a world that is sleazy and knowing, where sex is bought and sold, and where art has been afraid to tread. These paintings are, truly, an exploration of the “urban jungle”.

Philip Swarbrick has been a policeman, an illustrator and later the Head of Art History at New College, Swindon. He gave up this job to devote himself full time to painting.
