Anthony Lister (Book)

New York-based Australian artist Anthony Lister began his career in Brisbane where he studied at the Queensland College of the Arts and helped pioneer the stencil and street art movement in that city. Lister's art could be seen as a reincarnation of the American Pop Art movement of the 1960s but, instead of mass market commodities, Lister draws upon the mass media and its superheroes who have helped shape new attitudes and ways of seeing within global society. He says: "I'm not trying to change the world, I'm just reacting to the world that's trying to change me." His imagery, and the media from which it is drawn, reflects the prescience of Marshall McLuhan's predictions half a century ago.
