Book description: Kensington, NSW: Harpercollins. Hardcover. 1862562911 Jacket condition: VG. Oversized. Includes bibliographical references (p. 200-201). Includes index. Many major Australian artists have sought inspiration and expression in images from the myths and questions of religion. The years since World War II are especially rich in religious art, even though the society as a whole has been declaring its loss of religious meaning. Sometimes these paintings are an expression of the personal faith of the artist. More often, they represent a turning to the Scriptures or to religious questions of the meaning of life and death as a source of inspiration. The artists and paintings in this collection present, in microcosm, the history of Australian painting over these last few decades. The works reflect the major concerns of the time as well as the prevailing artistic enthusiasms. Images of Religion in Australian Art invites exploration and reflection on religion and its questions, Australian painting and its development, and the work and intentions of individual Australian artists, who share with us the experience of these years. 204 pages.
