Journeys To The Interior By Nicolas Rothwell |
|
|
|
Places, traditions, people and perceptions Australia's centre and north are a
world apart from its big coastal cities. Here one finds unique
natural wonders, visionary art, original thinkers and, sometimes,
distilled despair and death. In Journeys to the
Interior, Nicholas Rothwell travels deep
into the northern realm, combining the storytelling flair and
persistence of a journalist with the imagination of an artist. Following on from the acclaimed Another Country, this
book contains haunting and perceptive portraits, of, among others,
Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu, Ian Fairweather, Noel Pearson and Galarrwuy
Yunupingu. There are explorations of the natural world - of
pythons, desert oaks and magpie geese. And there are wonderful
introductions to the art and artists that bring the northern landscape
to life and transform it, whether through painting, dance or
photography. Soft cover 331 pages. (2009). Mainly text with a few B/W photos. 235mm X 153mm. Barcode: 9781863954624 . RRP $32.00 |
