Bardas explains that this book came into being as a means of documenting the collection that he and his wife Sandra joyfully accumulated over 45 years in their home located in Victoria,
Australia. Several essays give background on the couple and their collaboration as collectors. The organization of the presentation reflects their interests in Australian indigenous art;
Australian paintings, prints, and drawings; sculpture; and European prints and drawings. Proceeds from sale of the book will benefit the National Gallery of Victoria. The volume is oversize:
10x12". Distribution in North America is by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation �穢2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
