ANTHONY GREEN EXHIBITION - 1984

Don't know if anyone remembers the Anthony Green exhibition held at the McManus Gallery in 1984. It was a touring show called "One Day In The Life Of A Picture" and it also coincided with his first book "A Green Part Of The World".
I went along to see it - this image above being a postcard I came back with.
His paintings of his domestic life were quite humorous, and composed as if they were snapshots taken from a CCTV camera!
I recall him cropping up in the media quite a lot back then, tv, Sunday supplements and so on, so he seemed to be very popular around that era.
Can't say I've seen much of his stuff after the 80's though.
