Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A very clean copy with only tiny amounts of rubbing to the cover. This publication documents the work of Rodney Fumpston, bringing together an overview of the 'rich basket of fruits' gathered from the three decades he has spent on the exacting task of producing a unique and vibrant…body of prints. It includes the Fumpston - One Decade exhibition held at the Sarjeant Gallery in 1983. An important supportive component of the publication is Elizabeth Rankin's essay 'Remembrance of Things Past: Processing the Personal in the Prints of Rodney Fumpston'. It provides a fresh insight into the artist's life through a keenly observed elaboration of his ideas and working processes that in equal measure make each new work such a rewarding viewing experience. To complement the essay there is also a conversation between Damien Skinner and the artist around the subject of Picture Postcards, Travellers Tales: Rodney Fumpston, Tourist. The focus on that great New Zealand preoccupation with overseas will captivate readers, and discovering how Rodney develops his work form the experience of these excursions is most informing.
