| Summary |
This "book on the art of Michael Shannon traces his development from his early years as a student with George Bell, to his most recent studies of the landscape of Northern Victoria. Comprehensively illustrated, it reveals his sustained interest in the urban environment and his ability to find both poetry and quiet dignity in the ordinary aspects of the suburban world". -- inside front cover |
