About Me

AC: London, United Kingdom; Artist and writer A C Evans lives in West London, England. His visual and written works, including poetry, reviews and translations have appeared in numerous magazines both at home and abroad. Appearances include Stride, Nox, The Lamp of Thoth, Fire, Fisheye, Druscillas Garden, Not Dead But Dreaming, Monomyth & The Supplement, Le Miracle Tatoue, Midnight Street, Inclement, Neon Highway, Harlequin, Decanto, Carillon, Under The Radar and Outlaw.Born in Hampton Court in 1949, A C Evans lived in South London until 1963 when he moved to Essex and co-founded the semi-legendary Neo-Surrealist Convulsionist Group in 1966. Sometime later he returned to London and initiated The Ultrasphere in 1979. A C Evans works in the subversive tradition of the bizarre and the grotesque but defines his works as realist. Influenced by the Gothic dark-side of Romanticism, fin-de-siecle Decadence, Aestheticism, Expressionism, the iconoclasm of Dada, revolutionary Surrealism and the immediacy of Pop, he regards all these as points of departure, none as a destination - we live in a post avant-garde world. His works explore macabre themes, questioning assumptions about convention, identity and reality.
