Art Green’s 1966 painting “Station Time,” is a surrealistic work in vibrant colors. It depicts a clock tower, perhaps a cinema screen, a giant boot, and a man’s silhouette excavated to show sky or water below the ground, amongst other things.

Arthur "Art" Green (1914-2025) was a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, a member of Chicago's Hairy Who and later worked as a fine arts professor
