The Art of Grahame King
AU$30.00 Read MoreAdd to cartSasha Grishin; Grahame King
Melbourne: Macmillan Art Publishing, 2005.“Grahame King’s life as an artist began with his mastery of the new art of colour reproduction as a photolithographic colour etcher in Melbourne in the 1930s. At the same time, study at the National Gallery Art School with George Bell assisted his development as a painter. After war service and travels abroad, King returned to Melbourne with his wife, the sculptor Inge King. The two held a number of joint exhibitions of paintings and sculptures in Australia throughout the 1950s and then, from c.1962 Grahame King turned his attention, increasingly, towards the art of lithography becoming a master in this field of printmaking. He has also devoted himself to promoting the art of lithography and printmaking generally through the Print Council of Australia. He is often called Australia’s patron saint of printmaking. The book examines his seven decades working as an artist in Melbourne and is lavishly illustrated with colour reproductions throughout.” (publisher’s blurb)

The Darkroom: Photography and the Theatre of Desire
AU$10.00 Read MoreAdd to cartAnne Marsh
Melbourne: Macmillan, 2003.“Anne Marsh’s treatise on the art of photography traces its theoretical underpinning from the early debates between the rationalists and the fantasists, through psychoanalytical interpretations, to the theatre of desire. She investigates the role of photography in ghostly performances, the masking of desire, and high camp aesthetics – through to performance art and the role of the photographer as a gender terrorist – as in the work of Del LaGrace Volcano. The study concludes with notable examples of postmodern photography as they have occurred in the Australian context. This ground-breaking work by a leading Monash University academic will interest all students of photography and followers of recent trends in art and art theory.” (publisher’s blurb)
