In the work of the American artist Guy Johnson, the influence of surrealist artists is noticeable – the plot of the picture “Office” confirms this.
In a small office at the desk working clerk. In front of him a basket with a whole stack of papers; In the office there are also employees who are engaged in the same boring work. What is the old clerk thinking about while working? On the fact that, every day doing routine work, he imperceptibly turns into a continuation of the desk, having missed more interesting things in life.
And there is a playful picture of possible entertainment in the head of a clerk, like a half-dressed lady in black stockings with pink garters. One of the founders of photorealism, a vivid representative of pop art and hyperrealism, Guy Johnson successfully works in the style of surrealism – he is interested in a variety of genres of painting.
