Allen, Traudi
John Perceval
Melbourne: Melbourne University Press 1992 Attractively illustrated book which describes why John Perceval has earned a place in the front rank of Australia's leading painters. This book on Perceval's painting surveys his career from the early years to the present and traces diverse influences on his work. Traudi Allen places Perceval's work in the context of its time. She explores the significance of the artist's friendship with Arthur Boyd Sidney Nolan Clifton Pugh Fred Williams and others and his marriage to Mary Boyd. She identifies his role in the revolutionary 1940s decade in Melbourne and shows how those years and those friendships helped to shape his art. The result of extensive research this book brings together a representative selection of Perceval's paintings from public and private collections -- many of them reproduced here for the first time. A "catalogue raisonne" enables the reader to trace Perceval's career from the teenager of 1937 to the artist of stature of 1980s. Dmpness has affected the top right hand corner "flatness" of the pages and this reflected in the low price. 900g 185pp French flaps. Melbourne University Press unknown
