This book reproduces the best of three decades of Fred Cress' work. There are selections from his first exhibition in 1965, images from the early seventies which explore the motif of the 'crumpled shape', several pieces from the 1974-5 Ten Australians tour of Europe, and work produced in New York during 1980. The paintings and drawings of the eighties reveal Cress' increasing interest in figuration and his exploration of an iconography for secrecy.

This book differs from the typical art monograph: it is a blend of biography, history and criticism, profusely illustrated with 68 colour and 70 black and white reproductions.
