Brisbane : UQ Art Museum , 2012 .
First Edition.
20cm x 30cm. 120 pages, colour illustrations. Lettered french fold stiff board wrappers.
“Return to Sender is an exhibition of works by artists who left Queensland in the late 1970s and early 1980s, largely in reaction to the political and cultural milieu of the Joh Bjelke-Petersen era. While the exhibition is inspired by this exodus, it also invites a focus on ideas that were then circulating in Australian art, especially in Sydney where many of the artists were based. The exhibition comprises works made during the 1980s and early 1990s that employed photomedia in still or moving images, some linked to performance-based practice.” Artists are Barbara Campbell, Jeff Gibson, John Gillies (with The Sydney Front), Ross Harley, Rosemary Laing, Lindy Lee, Fiona MacDonald, Tracey Moffatt, Robyn Stacey, Mark Titmarsh, and Gary Warner. Curated by Michele Helmrich. This catalogue contains further essays by Ross Gibson, Martyn Jolly, and Rex Butler, with a foreword by Campbell Gray.
Light crease to rear cover. Very Good Condition.
