PEOPLE ARE STRANGE
The Cbus Collection of Australian Art

Women seem wicked when you’re unwanted
Streets are uneven when you’re down
-The Doors
Figurative paintings by artists including Charles Blackman, George Baldessin and Arthur Boyd reveal the bizarre and often haunting relationship between artists and the people around them.
