About this product

Product Information

The 30 years, 1916 to 1946, in which John Young was deeply involved in Australian art were turbulent and evolutionary. They encompassed the years of two World Wars and a great Depression - a time when Australia and her artists were becoming increasingly aware of their insularity, their individual nationality and also their existence and standing within the greater world of art. Sensitive artists were reaching out to a wider experience of the art of other nations, art of the past, the present and the future. The slow infiltration of post-impressionism, abstraction and expressionism, was bringing about a re-evaluation among some Australian artists, art critics and patrons of purposes and achievement in art; they were seeking significant form, strength through design, and emotional use of colour - an underlying truth, a more lasting beauty. Featured in this authoritative book are such notable artists as Roland Wakelin, Grace Cossington Smith, Norah Simpson, Margaret Preston, Will Ashton, George Lambert, Elioth Gruner, Thea Proctor and William Dobell - among many others.
