New Art Two, edited by Nevill Drury, offers a compelling window into the vibrant and evolving landscape of late 1980s Australian creativity. This definitive volume profiles fifty significant artists, ranging from emerging talents to established figures, showcasing the diverse stylistic approaches defining the era. Through a thoughtfully curated collection of paintings, drawings, and sculptures, readers are invited to explore the breadth of contemporary practice—from the neo-expressionist figure studies of Euan Macleod to the surreal, haunting visions of Suzie Marston and the evocative, bush-inspired sculptures of Ian Gentle.
Each entry provides an insightful artist biography, their personal creative philosophy, and detailed exhibition history, complemented by full-colour reproductions of their work. Far from a singular, static overview, this book captures a dynamic moment in Australian cultural history, reflecting a spectrum of media and perspectives that challenge, provoke, and inspire. Whether you are an art enthusiast, a collector, or simply curious about the creative forces shaping the nation, this essential guide serves as both an elegant reference and a fascinating introduction to the frontier of contemporary Australian art.
