Hedda
AU$90 Read MoreAdd to cartFin Serck-Hanssen
[Marseille]: Loose Joints, 2021.“Over the last five years, Norwegian artist Fin Serck-Hanssen followed and documented the gender transitioning journey of close friend Hedda, who from her early twenties travelled from Oslo to Buenos Aires and Bangkok to undergo cosmetic surgeries and a vaginoplasty. Serck-Hansen and Heddas images are made collaboratively to build a complex portrait of both physical and psychological change within a young persons life, and show with unflinching honesty the realities of Heddas transitioning, surgeries, and recovery. Hedda reflects on the psychological construction of identity in the 21st century, mixing her selfies and curation of an online identity against Serck-Hansens tender but direct portraiture of her most vulnerable moments.” (publisher’s blurb)

The Temple Dances in Bali
AU$2,500 Read MoreAdd to cartTyra de Kleen
Stockholm: Bokforlags Aktiebolaget Thule, 1936.Tyra Kleen (1874-1951) was a Swedish artist, ethnographic researcher, keen theosophist, cosmopolitan woman of the world, and a founding member of Foreningen Svenska Konstnarinnor (The Association of Swedish Women Artists). Kleen studied painting in Germany and France, lived and socialised with the cultural elite in Rome at the turn of the 19th century, and travelled, exhibited, and socialised extensively around the world. A fiercely independent character, despite rampant misogyny, she managed to skilfully manoeuvre and at times manipulate to achieve her ambitious goals. She spent many years throughout the 1910s and 1920s in Indonesia, studying ceremonial dance, and produced a number of books on dance, theatre, and ritual in Java and Bali, and in 1938 was awarded the Johan August Wahlberg for her work there. The Temple Dances in Bali includes short text on the Legong, Chalon Arong, and Joghed dances, costume, and music, with illustrations in the text, complimented by numerous captioned plates by Kleen. First published in Swedish in a limited edition of 300 copies as Tempeldanser och musikinstrument pa Bali, and here translated into English for the first time.

A Critical Revision of the Genus Eucalyptus (75 Parts in 8 Volumes)
AU$4,000 Read MoreAdd to cartJ. H. Maiden; Margaret Flockton
Sydney: William Applegate Gullick, John Spence, and Adam James Kent, Government Printers, 1903-1931.A complete set, being 75 parts in 8 volumes, containing over 3000 pages and 304 plates, 12 of which are in colour, and 4 of which are maps, of Joseph Henry Maidens masterpiece in the field of botanical research, and his major taxonomical work alongside his Forest Flora of New South Wales. The set is illustrated chiefly with lithographs by Margaret Flockton, together with several by Matilda Smith, a facsimile of L’Heritier, and 4 maps, as well as a photographic illustration by L. C. Webster, and a photographic portrait of Maiden in one of the posthumous volumes therein also published an obituary by Richard Hind Cambage. The project, which took 28 years to be published, the final parts prepared by Maiden before his death in 1925 and published posthumously edited by Cambage and William Blakely, was an extension of the work started by Ferdinand von Mueller and George Bentham in Flora Australiensis and continued by Mueller in his Eucalyptographia, devising classifications based on the characteristics of the stamens, and remained an important reference for many years. Maidens study of eucalyptus was completed alongside his duties as Government Botanist and Director of the Botanic Gardens, which he commenced in 1896. A talented and enthusiastic botanist Maiden established the colony’s first herbarium, the National Herbarium of New South Wales, together with a museum and library. Among his many studies and achievements he was also responsible for the construction of Sydneys first playground and worked tirelessly to develop the educational value of the Botanical Gardens for all Australians.

Personal Projects: Australiana / A Picture Book of Down Under
AU$55 Read MoreAdd to cartSimon Eeles
[Bologna]: Damiani Editore, 2016.Now out of print. “The first book by up-and-coming photographer Simon Eeles (born 1983), named Harper Bazaar’s Young Photographer of the Year in 2009, Australiana is the result of a cross-continental road trip Eeles undertook in his homeland after years of working in the US and abroad. Featuring beachside portraits, images of his nieces and nephews playing in his mother’s backyard on a small dairy farm in Tasmania, as well as landscape images of the country’s vegetation, the volume aims to paint a portrait of a place and a culture geographically separated. Having worked under renowned British fashion photographer Craig McDean, Eeles creates images with sharp, fashion-world glamour, even as he captures a relaxing day on an Australian beach. It is this rich and unusual combination of sensibilities–the outback hardness with New York glitz–that informs this first monograph, an homage to the diverse landscapes and hard light of the faraway continent.” (publisher’s blurb)
