Description

|
|
|
One of Australia's most significant 20th-century photographers, Max Dupain was significantly influenced by the "body culture" movement of the 1930s, argues Isobel Crombie. The senior curator of photography at the National Gallery of Victoria, Crombie charts Dupain's early work in relation to the new awareness and development of the physical body, promoted for developing individual health and fitness and for revitalizing the community—a movement that also informed theories of eugenics. In more than 100 images by Dupain and others, Crombie underscores the photographer's creative dialog with athleticism.
