Life, work and opinions of leading Australian artist. 16 colour plates, 15.5x23cms pp. x, 354 ‘In 1957 a Sydney businessman, recognising the immense talent of the young John Olsen, paid him to go to Majorca and paint. The businessman sold most of the paintings for a profit and Olsen was transformed by the influences of European art and the Mediterranean. In Majorca Olsen began a journal which he continued for the rest of his life, a fluid combination of words and drawings recording an extraordinarily rich life. This book is based on these journals.’ #0218R
