Web Author Description
webLongDescription Arthur Boyd (b.1920) comes from a well-known family of artists, and is one of the most important landscape painters to come out of Australia in the last century. In this film, shot at his wilderness homestead amid the spectacular scenery of the Shoalhaven river in New South Wales, Boyd talks about his work and its influences, encompassing his early Melbourne paintings, the Wimmera series, his 'London' period and the Shoalhaven paintings. Two new major paintings were commissioned especially for the film; the first, Pulpit Rock, is painted en plein air, and forms the basis for the second, a studio work entitled The Bathers. Both pictures address the theme of man's relation to the environment, a recurrent concern in Boyd's oeuvre, and the film shows the artist at work on them, painting on camera with an acute sensitivity to the light values of his surroundings. As these impressive canvases take shape, the viewer is given a rare opportunity to watch at first hand the working methods and creative process of a major artist.
