Article by Steve Lopes

NAS alumnus Guy Warren has inspired many other artists with his inventive and curious approach to the landscape and human form. An Archibald Prize winner, educator and respected painter, his contribution to Australia’s visual culture has been enormous. In Issue 34, Steve Lopes chatted to Warren about his colourful life and career – the rainforest, the permutations of the art world, the primality of painting and the experience of growing older.
