Please contact us if you have a question about this title.Author: Janine Burke Format: Hardback Number of Pages: 516 A member of the 'Angry Penguins' group which included Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd and Joy Hester, Tucker was one of Australia's most significant artists who will be best remembered for his powerful images of wartime Melbourne. He painted the city streets as they have never been painted before or since: as the home of evil, carnality and darkness. Tucker's vision did not alter or soften with age but remained true and tough until the end. AUSTRALIAN GOTHIC is based on original research as well as acclaimed author, curator and art historian Janine Burke's twenty-year association with Tucker. It is, astonishingly, the first biography to be written about Tucker, and provides a definitive and utterly compelling account of his life and his work. Meticulously researched, written with a friend's respect and affection as well as a lyrical understanding of the forces that drove Tucker and the worlds in which he moved, AUSTRALIAN GOTHIC is a vital and engaging study of the life and work of a brilliant and iconic artist.

Love emerges as the narrative of this exhibition, equally as illusion and obsession. While Tucker's public persona was one of pride and ambition, his photographs reveal an affectionate, shy and vulnerable man, who unwittingly disclosed his heart in pictures. Size: Quarto. Book.

Australian Gothic is the first biography of Tucker, one of Australia's most significant and influential artists. A member of the 'Angry Penguins' group which included Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd and Joy Hester, Tucker is best remembered for his paintings of wartime Melbourne: Images of Modern Evil. He showed the city streets as they had never been shown before - as the site of evil, carnality and darkness. Burke's research also analyses the influence of fellow artist Joy Hester on Tucker's career. Passionate, earthy and gifted, Hester was Tucker's great love and muse. Controversially, Burke argues that following Hester's abandonment of Tucker, his art changed irrevocably. Author, curator and art historian, Janine Burke, enjoyed a 22-year association with Tucker, and her biography draws on hours of conversations and interviews she conducted with him.
