  Minx Publishing, 2014, pictorial card covers, fine art colour imagery, 28.1 cms x 30 cms x 1.2 cms, 128 pages, text by Amanda Botha, condition: new.

Lost in the Dust is a powerful exhibition celebrating a series of narrative paintings of the Anglo-Boer War by John Meyer.
John Meyer completed a body of fifteen works set during the Anglo Boer War, titled Lost in the Dust. The exhibition offered an intimate and compelling look at how war affects the lives of those swept up in it. The paintings are not historical, but a collection of completely fictitious, imaginative narratives, woven into a multi-layered realm that deals with the tragedy of war. The collection combines Meyers talents for landscape and narrative in a unique body of works.

Memories of the Anglo-Boer War are etched into the collective and unconscious memory of many South Africans and Meyers' work with a strong filmic content, creates a world we want to participate in.


Meyer is regarded as the leading figure in the realist movement in southern Africa. Decidedly contemporary in his unique vision and as a student of modernism in all its guises, Meyer has maintained a considered commitment to representational painting.  Concerned with the complexities of visual perception and their solutions, his paintings are not mere representations of existing places and things, but exist as indelible retrospection, like total recall.
