Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Jerry Santbergen stands in front of the 23-foot mural he painted for the Pilot Tavern by coating himself and his wife Naili (seated above) with paint and rolling around on the canvas. The mural marks a come-back for the 26-year-old artist. He announced last year that he was quitting art-and caused a commotion at the Ontario Art Gallery when one of his pictures was hung there. Now; he says; he finds art in being.
