'''Glen Baxter''' (born 4 March 1944), nicknamed '''Colonel Baxter''', is an English draughtsman and artist, noted for his [[absurdism|absurdist]] drawings and an overall effect often resembling [[literary nonsense]].<ref>Conceição Pereira (University of Lisbon), “Glen Baxter: simulacro e literalização”, 2005, Olhares e Escritas, Ensaios sobre Palavra e Imagem, Rui Carvalho Homem e Maria de Fátima Lambert, eds., Porto: Faculdade de Letras, Universidade do Porto, pp. 189-195.</ref> |

Born in [[Leeds]], Baxter was trained at [[Leeds Arts University|Leeds College of Art]] (1960-5). He was a teacher at the [[Victoria and Albert Museum|V&A]] (1967–74). His first solo exhibition was held at [[New York City|New York]]'s Gotham Book Mart Gallery. Baxter's artwork has appeared in ''[[The New Yorker]]'', ''[[Vanity Fair (magazine)|Vanity Fair]]'' and ''[[The Independent on Sunday]]''. His images and their corresponding captions employ art and language inspired by [[pulp magazine|pulp fiction]] and adventure comics with intellectual jokes and references. His simple line-drawings often feature [[cowboy]]s, [[gangster]]s, [[explorer]]s and [[schoolchildren]], who utter incongruous intellectual statements regarding art and philosophy. One of his best known satirical works, ''The Impending Gleam'', was first published in 1981. |
