Canberra : Drill Hall Gallery, and Sydney : Nanda/Hobbs Prism Editions, 2023. Folio, lettered flush cut cloth boards, illustrated endpapers, unpaginated, (pp. 80), essays and illustrations. A new copy. Printed in an edition of 500 copies. James Drinkwater emerged early on as a remarkable talent, never shying away from the intensity and boldness that define his painting style. His works, while suggestive of figures, landscapes, and interiors, transcend simple representation, embodying intricate abstractions. Each piece stands out for its lavish interplay of texture, color, and spatial complexity. This publication marks the first comprehensive survey of Drinkwater’s oeuvre, enriched by insights from Ralph Hobbs and Nicole Hauser, alongside a compelling conversation with the artist and Terence Maloon. Through these contributions, readers will gain a deeper understanding of Drinkwater’s unique vision and the dynamic energy that infuses his work. the publisher
