Face of an Icon (1994) [W/P]

Synthetic polymer paint on paper, 76 x 56

Coll.: unknown

Unidentified monochrome work on paper exhibited at both the Bellas Gallery, Brisbane, and the Dick Bett Gallery, Hobart, in 1994 (and also listed in Arkley’s 1993-6 stock-book, under 1994).

It is difficult to be sure which of Arkley’s icon compositions was used for this work. Cf. Icon Head (?) (1996) [W/P], a coloured work on paper shown in HA Bellas 3/96.
