Spanning over thirty years of output, the volume presents a comprehensive retrospective of Lewis's work across poetry, performance, printmaking, and installation — a career defined by an insistence on the inseparability of language and image, word and gesture, text and body.\n\nRuark Lewis occupies a singular position in contemporary Australian art, consistently working at the intersection of the literary and the visual, where the act of mark-making becomes a kind of writing and writing becomes a kind of art. Thoughtlines illustrates not only the remarkable breadth of his formal experimentation but also the persistent philosophical undercurrents — community, memory, and cultural translation — that animate his practice. Published by SNO (Sherman Contemporary Art Foundation's online platform), this richly documented catalogue stands as an essential record for anyone seeking to understand the deeper currents running through Australian conceptual art at the turn of the twenty-first century. What emerges is a portrait of an artist for whom every line drawn is, ultimately, a line of thought.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49276126036187,"sku":"2026100009270-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/90914c87-0d91-4ead-9969-118499edf2c5.png?v=1789092668","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009270-secondhand-thoughtlines-the-art-of-ruark-lewis-1982-2014","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
