Go Figure collects 44 "social surrealist" figurative paintings, spanning 1987-2023. All are in eye-popping color: many depict a crowd in observational tableaux, each figure a character by virtue of dress, body language, and interactions with each other, animals, and their setting. Other paintings reflect Colwell's wide travels, and still others are surreal -- such as "Junior and the Legs" (2023), which shows a young man strumming a guitar on stage, accompanied by disembodied women's limbs. Each image has a narrative and a moral purpose--often, one figure bravely moves forward, despite a hostile crowd. In Guy Colwell's world, no individual could ever be an island, just another part of a rich ecosystem. Thematically, then, it is fitting that this book was made possible by a group of his collectors, who are sponsoring the show/Guy Colwell retrospective "Imaginary Reality," from which this book is created, in an independent space. Go Figure is in an 11" X 11" format, to best feature the high-quality reproductions of these numerous critically praised works, which range in size from 1 2/25' x 1 1/4' to 7 1/4' x 8'.
