Ode for St. Cecilia's Day (1692)
by Bernard Smith
Among present-day artists there is a new interest in ' images,' in representational elements as distinct from pure abstraction.
Bernard Smith , art historian and art critic from Melbourne, considers the use of images in the work of Francis Bacon , Sidney Nolan , and another Australian painter, Arthur Boyd , a retrospective exhibition of whose work has just opened at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London.
