Dogs in Art
Location
About
Presented by Steven Miller (Australia)
Steven Miller has published widely on art, and his popular 'Dogs in Australian Art' is now into its 3rd expanded edition. From colonial works through contemporary installations, in this lecture, he will show how dogs have truly been 'the best friend' to artists, not only as subjects, but also as companions and champions. As the artist Norman Lindsay confided to the poet Hugh MacRae, 'one can lose most human beings with less disturbance than a dog'.
Steven Miller is the former head of the National Art Archive of the Art Gallery of NSW. He has worked in commercial and public galleries since the late 1980s and published widely on art.
