Notes
"… they travelled in an elderly Mercedes Benz to the ghost towns of the southern Namib … On the artistic front, the result of this first desert encounter was for Alexander an intense love affair of another kind, which was to last for longer than a decade and yield some of the most striking realist and surrealist paintings ever made in South Africa."
David Robbins
