Description

Five years in the making, between 1994 and 1999, one hundred Appassionata woodcuts are his most sustained autobiographical series to date, incorporating images from his boyhood in Borgia, Italy, his migration to Australia and his experiences as an artist in Sydney. All 100 Appassionata prints are in the collection of the Art Gallery of New South Wales, a recent generous gift from the artist, together with the woodblocks from which they were printed and all the preparatory drawings.
