Peter Saul goes where other artists won’t, creating works that are uncomfortable and confrontational. In their mystery, the viewer is given the responsibility to decide what the works mean, empowering the audience to take a closer look at the image, and thereafter, the world around them. ⠀ 'I like to think that I’m giving the viewer a lot to look at. Contemporary art doesn’t like to give all that much, you know? But I think I do—I put a lot in for a hand-painted picture.' - Peter Saul ⠀ Exhibition history: Abu Dhabi Art 2023.
