Writer Ian Collins sets the biographical scene and marshals a parade of expert witnesses to provide a personal response to the artist's work. In this lively procession of voices, painter and printmaker Bert Irvin salutes 'some of the most important abstract paintings of our period'. (...) artist Jeffery Camp hails John McLean as 'The always aware, ever young, ever colourful, ever colour loving, surefire abstract artist'. John McLean remains the main act. However, speaking eloquently for himself both in words and pictures.
