Speaking volumes: on our love affair with art books

Nov 25, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

Art books are portable museums—or that’s how we like to talk about them. They can be inspiration or something to push back against. When Lindy Lee was a young artist, she found a Jan van Eyck book in the art school library and started photocopying. The grainy images got her thinking about the original and the copy, identity and value. The moment led to works like Untitled (After Jan van Eyck) (1985) and The Silence of Painters (1989), and a critical new chapter in her practice.
About Face mirrors the alluring world of contemporary portrait painting

Nov 13, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

Putting Natasha Walsh’s brilliant reworking of Brett Whiteley on the cover of About Face was a smart move. It hits that marketing sweet spot: familiar but fresh. But then, there are a lot of clever marketing decisions in this new book on contemporary portrait painting from Australia and New Zealand, and a fair bit of market talk too. Again and again, the artist profiles turn to how the genre is perceived by buyers and the long shadow cast by the Archibald Prize.
A compact but rewarding monograph that delves inside Natalya Hughes’s layered practice

Oct 6, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

Natalya Hughes: The Interior takes a close look at three of the artist’s recent bodies of work, including the acclaimed exhibition that gives the book its name. It’s a slim publication, at least compared to the run of hefty Australian monographs that have been appearing lately, but it’s a rewarding one, and the tight focus delivers a real sense of the rich detail in Hughes’ work.
A vibrant new monograph foregrounds community and living culture, in Madjem Bambandila: The Art & Country of Kelly Koumalatsos.

Aug 22, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

Madjem Bambandila: The Art & Country of Kelly Koumalatsos is a triumph. The beautiful new monograph gathers perspectives from over 20 artists, writers and cultural figures. It’s a survey of Kelly Koumalatsos’s wide-ranging career, but also a history of Melbourne, a testament to living culture, and a moving exploration of how art, activism and community all intertwine.
Studying the artist: Three approaches to capturing a creative practice in print

Jul 22, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

How do you document an artist’s practice? The traditional monograph is often about tracing the development of an established artist’s work over time. It identifies connections and through-lines, and suggests ways to consider critical significance. But it can also be about much more. The creative choices around how a monograph is put together can also speak powerfully about an artist’s values and the questions that drive their practice.
Shifting Focus: Outside the Frame turns the lens onto video and time-based art

Jun 10, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

Outside the Frame is a sly title for a book about the moving image in art. “Despite its now regular presence in contemporary art galleries, there is no doubt that time-based art can be intimidating for some audiences,” writes art historian Kate Warren in the book’s opening essay.

“Think about the women who made this”: A Century of Quilts examines our material culture

Mar 14, 2024 | artguide.com.au | Jane O'Sullivan

The Rajah quilt is one of the National Gallery of Australia’s most requested items but it’s rarely on display. “Textiles are incredibly easy to fade,” says the gallery’s Australian art curator Simeran Maxwell. “The structure of The Rajah quilt also means, unfortunately, it’s safest in its box.” The large quilt was made in 1841 by British convict women during their three-month journey to Tasmania on board the convict ship the Rajah.
