Inhoudsopgave:
Never shy of voicing an opinion, artist Margaret Preston launched into print on a variety of subjects, from flower arranging and furnishing a bedroom, to Aboriginal art and design, Pokerwork and Wood-blocking. Selected from the pages of Australia's journals by Elizabeth Butel, this collection addresses Preston's recurring preoccupations - \u0026quot;modern\u0026quot; art, an Australian national art and the craft of art-making. \u0026quot;The natural enemy of the dull\u0026quot; - Preston's style is infused with paradox, retaining its freshness through her very direct, uncompromising attack and illustrated with examples of her woodcuts.\u003cbr /\u003e |
