Deborah Hart, Editor
Imants Tillers, one world many visions
National Gallery of Australia, Canberra 2006
240 x 305mm, hardcover, 127 pp
$49.00 rrp

In-depth discussions with and introduction by Ron Radford and comprehensive essays by Deborah Hart, Howard Murphy, Jennifer Slatyer and Charles Merewether this publication considers Tillers' artistic development over more than twenty years, the relationship of his work with indigenous art, a biographical account of his art and life, and a poetic interpretation of his recent work relating to place and the environment.

Across the spectrum of his painting practice Tillers makes pertinent local and international connections, raising questions about origins and originality, place and displacement, multicultural concerns and serendipitous connections, and environmental issues. This richly illustrated, up-to-date publication is an engaging account of one of Australia's most significant and thought-provoking artists.
