"I learned how to find sources of contemporary imagery in unexpected places and in unlikely times." Sixty-three plates of Filip's highly symbolic etchings and paintings bear out the artist's self-assessment. Santa Fe art dealer/historian Turner showcases the work and biography of a defiant Romanian artist who escaped the repressive regime of the communist dictator Ceausescu to settle in New Hope, Pennsylvania just prior to the 1989 revolution and committed suicide in 1993. Distributed by U. of Washington Press. No index. 9x12". Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
