Conroy Maddox

Conroy Maddox (1912 - 2005) was active/lived in England.  Conroy Maddox is known for Collage, surrealist painting of figures, animals, fish, buildings, landscape, educator.

A committed Surrealist for over seventy years, Conroy Maddox (1912-2005) was a painter, writer and lecturer, and a key figure in the Birmingham Surrealist movement. He was described by his friend and contemporary Desmond Morris as "the most undiluted, unwavering Surrealist" in Britain.

He was born in Ledbury, Herefordshire, and discovered Surrealism* in 1935, spending the rest of his life exploring its potential through paintings, collages, photographs, objects and texts. Inspired by artists such as Max Ernst and Salvador Dalí, he rejected academic painting in favour of techniques that expressed the surrealistic spirit of rebellion. Maddox officially joined the British Surrealist Group in 1938.
