    After Fire: A Biography of Clifton Pugh : aARTlook : Australian Art Reviewhttp://artreview.com.au/contents/552716783-after-fire-a-biography-of-cl... Australian Art Review Art News Exhibition Reviews Features aARTlook Art Directory Artist Profiles From the Editor Latest Issue Submit Content Homepage FREE Email Update Subscribe About Us Advertising Contact Us Posted: 04 Oct 2010 | By: Patricia Anderson - Editor Clifton Pugh did not disappear into the undergrowth, but on either side of the canyon between the abstractionists of the Sydney scene in the 1950s and 60s and the aggressively narrative painters of Melbourne of the same period, Pugh does seem to have gone missing for years on end. Sally Morrison's biography - nine years in the writing - should put him in the clearing once and for all. His work was more sophisticated, more cerebral and more finely crafted than many of his peers who have ascended the auction room ladder, so it seems completely timely that a heartfelt, finely tuned and exhaustively researched biography by novelist and scientist Sally Morrison should make its appearance now. Morrison had attracted the attention of Patrick White years earlier with her novel Who's Taking You to the Dance? and in 1995 she won the National Book Council's Banjo Award with Mad Meg. Both books exhibit a degree of psychological penetration, which makes her biography of Pugh compelling reading. Morrison became friends with Pugh in his later years; and when he died in 1990, she waited ten years before undertaking a detailed and frank account of his life. Pugh, however, does not appear to be a particularly likeable character.

  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

  • 1 the Shooting of Wild Dogs 1958 by Clifton Pugh Its Placement in The
    The Shooting of Wild Dogs 1958 by Clifton Pugh The Shooting of Wild Dogs 1958 Clifton Pugh image Sally Morrison, copyright Dunmoochin Foundation Its placement in the exhibition space of the NGV collection Clifton Pugh was known primarily as a portraitist, so it is not surprising to find his work on display at right angles to the acknowledged leading portrait painter of his day, William Dobell. But while Pugh was a portraitist good enough to challenge Dobell’s supremacy and while he made his mark painting the leading lights of his day, he also painted Australia as he saw it. The hanging of the picture between Aboriginal works and the works of Pugh’s contemporaries is significant because Pugh’s art, which was inspired by the country he lived in, represents perhaps the first genuine nexus between Aboriginal and resident non- Aboriginal art in Australian art history. The painting next to the Pugh has almost nothing in common with it. It is by Robert Dickerson, whose main focus was on the poverty of urban Australia. You will notice all along the wall that Pugh’s contemporaries painted the urban scene and often their paintings are far less dramatically rendered than Pugh’s. That’s not to say that they aren’t in their different ways, dramatic. 1 Biographical background Pugh spent the formative part of his youth growing up on a model farm out in the bush at Greensborough. The family also had a house at Frankston, where he was exposed to the Bohemian artistic life through family acquaintance with Nan and Harry McClelland, who founded the McClelland Gallery.
