Art born in (or really close to) Balsall Heath:

Conroy Maddox (27 December 1912 – 14 January 2005) was an English surrealist painter, collagist, writer and lecturer; and a key figure in the Birmingham Surrealist movement. [...] Following the war he moved to Balsall Heath and began his most active period. The focus of surrealist activity in the period was Maddox's house overlooking Calthorpe Park in Balsall Heath.
