Description

The Australian cubist and potter Anne Dangar (18851951) has occupied a unique position in art history as one of the country's most important yet underacknowledged modern artists. The National Gallery is honoured to present Anne Dangar, a publication accompanying a major retrospective exhibition celebrating Dangar's life and art through previously unknown works, new scholarship and perspectives on her practice.

Rebecca Edwards, Curator, Australian Art, provides a detailed and engaging account of Dangar's art and life, tracing her beginnings in Kempsey, NSW, her studies in Sydney and Paris, and her subsequent journey to Moly-Sabata, Sablons, France. There she established her international reputation as a cubist artist. Featuring contributions by Elena Taylor, Angela Goddard, Anne O'Hehir, ADS Donaldson and the late Peter Brooke, the publication surveys Dangar's art, networks and legacy.

With over 150 of the artist's works reproduced, as well as previously unpublished archival material, this richly illustrated book is a comprehensive record of Dangar's impressive artistic output and impact on Australian modernism.
