Robert Dickerson: Against The Tide

Robert Dickerson painted the unvarnished truth of Australian life—the factory workers, the drinkers, the forgotten faces in the crowd. This comprehensive look at one of our most important figurative painters traces his unflinching vision from post-war Sydney through decades of bold, honest work that never compromised for fashion or favour. A substantial volume that captures both the artist and his era. Perfect for lovers of Australian art history and anyone drawn to socially conscious painting.
