'Artist and writer Stephanie Radok possesses a unique international perspective. For over twenty years she has written about and witnessed the emergence of contemporary Aboriginal art and the responses of Australian art to global diasporas.
'In An Opening: Twelve Love Stories about Art, Stephanie Radok takes us on a walk with her dog and finds that it is possible to re-imagine the suburb as the site of epiphanies and attachments.' (From the publisher's website.)
'Stephanie Radok is an artist who has exhibited her paintings, prints and installations widely in Australia. She is also a well-respected writer, having edited key Australian art journals Artlink and Art Monthly. Much of her writing is focused on understanding and promoting Aboriginal art. As a child, Radok travelled widely, thanks to her father’s work, and this broad and unconventional childhood has provided Radok with an enriched view of the world that she brings into both her writing and her art. This long-term exposure to different cultures and communities also supports her theories about Aboriginal art in Australia and beyond.' (Introduction)
