  • “The artist has a wild, urban, tinker-boy energy which pours through all his work, gorgeously reproduced in Lilliput Press’s Brian Bourke, Five Decades. The Bourke characteristics — images speared within an oval, vibrant landscapes, single-figure portraits, dizzying, vertiginous intensity lit with Van Gogh colours — are all here…” —Rosita Sweetman, The Independent.
