Terry, a dealer in African Art, was born in Nairobi, Kenya, and lives in Vienna’s 18th District.  This is the fifth portrait of Vienna Faces, a series of drawings for The Vienna Review by artist Martin Huxter, prize-winner at the John Moores Exhibition for Painting. Huxter has been living and working as an artist in Vienna since 1994. Faces is Huxter’s response to the people he encounters, and hopes to portray how Vienna is becoming increasingly cosmopolitan. At street level, faces can look very different from the ‘face’ presented by the media.
