Essays by a number of individuals across two continents provide complimentary, divergent and overlapping perspectives on Australian art. Split into two parts, this scholarly publication documents the journey that led American artist Gordon Samstag and his wife Anne to move from America to Australia. Illustrations, portraits and facsimiles fill the pages, visually expressing the couple’s impressive talents and significant contribution to the visual culture of Australia.
