Face: Australian Portraits 1880-1960
Author(s): GRAY Anne
Featuring 54 portraits by 34 artists, this book takes a fresh look at Australian portraiture from the 1880s late Colonial period to the mid-1960s and the move into abstraction. "Face" considers the international influences upon Australian portrait painting and the more distinctive turns that Australian portraiture has taken in its own right. Australian artists have often challenged the possibilities of portraiture, rejected the predictable and pushed boundaries in both their choice of subject and their painterly approach.
