Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Written with great passion, this book is a unique insight into the way an artist works and the way in which life feeds art.Few artists in Australia are held in such affectionate esteem as Mirka Mora. Even fewer have had such an amazing life.

From narrowly escaping the horrors of the Holocaust in her native Paris to settling in a staid 1950s Melbourne, Mora's story is a vivid canvas of survival, artistic obsession, and outrageous charm. She recounts her pivotal role in transforming the city's cultural scene, running legendary cafe-restaurants that became a magnet for artists and intellectuals, and living a life "wicked but virtuous," filled with lovers, art, and an unwavering zest for the unconventional. This is more than a memoir; it is a celebration of a life lived to the utmost and a unique insight into how an artist's world, family, and extraordinary generosity feed the imagination. Secondhand, Hardback.
