single work
review
— Appears in: Australian Aboriginal Studies , no. 2 2013; (p. 108-110)
— Review of An Opening : Twelve Love Stories About Art 2012 single work prose'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)
