Reviews
Brandt is essentially an 'imaginer.' His work is subjective. It comes out of his head. But it is not a head stuck blindly in the clouds. Brandt has lived - and he goes on living in everything he puts on paper. His work is endlessly an expression of impression. But it is no field of daffodils recollected in tranquility - it is a vital outpouring of vivid and sometimes obviously painful experience.
