"Ethel Carrick explores and celebrates this remarkable artist who contributed significantly to Australian and international art for over 50 years. Carrick's work radiates with luminous light, colour and energy; predominantly focusing on crowds, in all their diversity and interconnection. This publication will accompany the National Gallery exhibition Ethel Carrick, which will be the first retrospective of her work in over 40 years, the most comprehensive to date, and will shine new light on her life and works. Carrick (1872-1952) was a truly transnational artist who was born in Britain and lived and worked primarily in France and Australia. She was one of the first post-impressionist artists to exhibit in Australia, and yet her significant artistic contributions and amazing life story are not known to a wide audience. Deborah Hart, Head Curator, Australian Art, passionately guides the reader through an absorbing, thorough and richly visual exploration of Ethel's life and art. This is supported by seven focus essays from Rebecca Blake, Angela Goddard, Emma Kindred, Jenny McFarlane, Denise Mimmocchi, and Juliette Peers, which cover such diverse topics as Carrick's affectionate and iconic portrayals of Manly Beach and the modern surfer girl, her North African travels, and her remarkable artistic records and philanthropy during World War II. This publication includes new research illuminating an artist who has been too long overshadowed. This stunning volume features a modern design and bursts with colour, complementing Carrick's oeuvre. The inclusion of very generously illustrated large reproductions and details of paintings allow the reader to appreciate their stunning detail to full effect"--Publisher's description.

Softcover. Condizione: VG+. Light shelf wear. Quarto. Softcover. Illustrated wraps. 127 pages : colour illustrations ; 32 cm. "On the occasion of the National Gallery of Australia's 40th anniversary, the gallery commissioned revered Chinese-Australian artist Lindy Lee to create a work of great ambition, one that would be the most significant of Lee's career and permanently installed in the gallery's forecourt: a beacon for many generations to come. 'Ouroboros' is the result of such an invitation. This book traces the arc of its making, of the many threads that are woven together by many hands to make such a project possible. It seeks to offer context for how this monumental work came to be. In its pages you will encounter the infinite: the cosmos, the expansive, the unending. You will also find the deft precision of technical drawings-the blueprints for feats of engineering unpreceded in Lee's practice or in the work of Urban Art Projects (UAP), the fabricators or this immersive sculpture. The awe of 'Ouroboros' is bound to both that which is eternal and that which is exact. The design of this book seeks to bring you closer to both the conceptual undercurrents and the material quality of 'Ouroboros' itself. It is a guide to both mechanism and metaphor."
