Teeming with Life. John Olsen: His Complete Graphics, 1957-2005
South Yarra, Macmillan Art Publishing, 2005 [first edition].
Folio, 264 pages with over 430 colour illustrations.
Silver-decorated papered boards; a fine copy with the near-fine dustwrapper (colour-pictorial, on a blue background).
This important catalogue raisonne, limited to 1500 copies, was compiled in consultation with John Olsen and Jeffrey Makin. The contents page is signed and dated (2006), with the signature forming part of an attractive original ink drawing. Comparison with a copy in a variant dustwrapper (illustrated in shades of cream and brown on a light brown background) indicates this version is printed on slightly inferior paper stock, making the volume noticeably thinner. For the record, the only other distinguishing feature we could find is in the ISBNs (this item is 1876832231, the other is 1876832932).
