"Adam Cullen wasted little time making an impact on the Australian art world. He was already well established as a Sydney 'grunge' artist when he won the Archibald Prize for his portrait of actor David Wenham in 2000, raising yet more hackles among the more conservative members of the Australian art world. However, this insightful text... refutes and goes far beyond the bad boy image, revealing an artist of extraordinary skill and sensitivity." - inside front cover
