Martin Sharp

This is the beautifully told story of charismatic and unconventional pop artist Martin Sharp, from his lonely privileged childhood, to the heady days of the underground magazine Oz to Swinging London and beyond. Sharp blurred the boundaries of high art and low, he drew rock stars and reprobates into his world, he collaborated with Eric Clapton, obsessively championed eccentric singer Tiny Tim, was haunted by Sydney’s Luna Park, and paradoxically became a recluse whose phone never stopped ringing.
