Tent. Brisbane, Institute of Modern Art, 00-00-2018. - Kunstenaarsboek van de Australische kunstenaar Tom Nicholson. - Drawings and correspondence is an artist’s book which evolved in parallel to a set of his large charcoal drawings. These drawings were based on a single anonymous archival photograph, held in the collection of the State Library of Victoria, which captured the ‘native encampment’, a short-lived nineteenth-century ethnographic display in the Melbourne Zoo. The book consists of an imaginary email correspondence which responds to the nature of drawing as an activity, and to the meanings of the drawn surface.
