Russell Drysdale
1912-1981
Born
in Bognor Regis, England in 1912 Drysdale lied in Australia from
1923. He studied with George Bell in Melbourne, at the Grosvenor
School in London and at the Grande Chaumiere in Paris. He exhibited
widely in Australia and overseas and his outback landscape works
came to symbolize the real Australia. Retrospectives were mounted
by the Art Gallery of NSW and the National Gallery of Victoria.
In 1954 he represented Australia with Sidney Noland and Dobell
at the Venice Biennale. He was appointed a Trustee of the Art
Gallery of NSW in 1963 and in 1969 was knighted for his services
