So Far: The Art of Dale Frank, 1980-2005

So Far- The Art of Dale Frank 1980-2005 traces a trajectory in the work of Australian artist Dale Frank, considering his early performance artworks of the 1970s and early 1980s and themes that emerged in his work of the mid-1990s onward. It tracks the idea of performance in his work, culminating with a discussion of his most recent paintings. It includes instances of his large-scale drawings, ‘social sculpture’ performance works and ‘Varnish Paintings’.This is a magnificent career retrospective monograph, notable for its high production values and the new light it sheds on one of Australia’s leading painters.
