This monograph presents a full overview of the paintings and sculptures of London-born, New York/Mexico-based artist Brian Nissen (born 1939). It explores his major themes, which range from myth and history to anthropology and biology, all of which are expressed in an astonishing variety of idioms--including reinterpretations of ancient Mexican codices.
