<p>Over the past four decades, Canadian artist Tony Calzetta has developed a bold style and a unique visual lexicon. In <i>Fabulous Peculiarities</i>, veteran author, art gallery director, curator and columnist Tom Smart teases out Calzetta's many and varied artistic influences. Smart also examines how the artist has made efforts to engage audiences in the interpretation of his works, resulting in unique and complex visual narratives. As Smart explains, the culmination of this interest in visual narratives is Calzetta's collaborative livre d'artiste created with award-winning poet Leon Rooke and printmaker Dieter Grund: a zany, surprising masterwork entitled <i>How God Talks in His Sleep and Other Fabulous Fictions</i>.</p>
