Condition remarks:
Paperback
Secondhand book: generally 'Very Good' to 'Excellent'. These are books which may have some slight wear and tear or sun fading on the edges. There may be an inscription at the front.
Jan Senbergs is one of Australia's most compelling and intellectually rigorous visual artists, and Through the Imagination presents a focused survey of works exhibited at Niagara Galleries, Melbourne, in October 2011. This exhibition catalogue chronicles Senbergs' characteristically dense and layered pictorial language — a world saturated with text, symbol, and allegory — inviting the viewer into a labyrinthine interior of thought and image-making. Born in Latvia and long based in Melbourne, Senbergs has spent decades building a singular body of work that bridges European expressionism and a distinctly Australian consciousness. His paintings resist easy categorisation, drawing on literature, politics, and memory to construct images of extraordinary complexity and psychological weight. Through the Imagination stands as a testament to an artist who continues to push the boundaries of what painting can mean — leaving the viewer to wonder what further territories his restless mind might yet chart.
