Description
Papua New Guinea Prints is a comprehensive study of printmaking in Papua New Guinea, spanning from its beginnings in the late 1960s to the present. This book explores the National Gallery of Australia's extensive collection of over 600 prints and drawings, featuring some of the earliest known contemporary prints.
Richly illustrated and clearly written, this groundbreaking work provides a valuable insight into a significant period in the history of art in Papua New Guinea. The research was undertaken by Melanie Eastburn during her time as the inaugural recipient of the Gordon Darling Fellowship for the study of prints and printmaking in Australia and the Australasian region.
Published as part of the National Gallery of Australia's Prints and Printmaking: Australia, Asia, Pacific series, this book is a significant contribution to our understanding of printmaking in Papua New Guinea. With over 120 pages of detailed illustrations and analysis, it is an essential resource for anyone interested in the subject.
