A rare and intimate window into the creative mind of one of Australia's most distinguished printmakers and mixed-media artists, Bruno Leti: Works on Paper 1972–1992 chronicles two decades of sustained artistic vision, gathering a landmark body of work that traces Leti's evolution from his early explorations to his mature, internationally recognised style. The catalogue presents an extraordinary selection of works on paper — drawings, prints, and mixed-media pieces — that showcase Leti's commanding ability to fuse texture, mark-making, and symbolic imagery into compositions of quiet but insistent power. Born in Italy and deeply shaped by both European modernism and the Australian landscape, Bruno Leti occupies a singular place in the history of Australian contemporary art, and this retrospective volume illuminates the conceptual and emotional architecture underpinning his practice. His works, characterised by their layered surfaces, muted earth tones, and meditative tension between the organic and the constructed, reward sustained attention with their accumulating depth of meaning. For collectors, scholars, and admirers of printmaking and works on paper, this publication stands as an essential document — and a compelling argument for Leti's enduring relevance in the broader conversation of late 20th-century art.
