Description: "Richard Larter is widely considered to be one of Australia's most distinguished artists. Born in 1929 he arrived in Australia from England in 1962 and, over the ensuing four decades, created an impressive, provocative, lively body of work. Larters lively wit and satirical insights are matched by his considerable abilities as a draughtsman and particularly as a great colourist. His ability to combine politics, history and sexuality mixed with feeling for colour makes his works unique, energetic and challenging."--Provided by publisher.
Notes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition 'Richard Larter : a retrospective', 20 June-14 September 2008, held at the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra.
