The Case that Stopped a Nation (SOLD OUT)
The award of the Archibald Prize to William Dobell for his portrait of Joshua Smith in 1944 provoked an uproar. In this talk Dr Peter Edwell, who teaches in the Department of History & Archaeology at Macquarie University, discusses the book he published recently about the controversy. The book is the first full study of this event, & as a relative of Mary Edwards, Peter offers new & intriguing insights into the intense behind-the-scenes events. Books will be available for purchase and signing.
