Fiona Foley Provocateur: An Art Life by Louise Martin-Chew 

Join us in this FREE event for the launch of the new biography on the life and work of leading Badtjala artist, Fiona Foley, written by one of Australia’s most celebrated art writers, Louise Martin-Chew.

Published by QUT Art Museum to coincide with a major survey of the work of Fiona Foley, this unique biography provides readers with insight into the life of the artist: from her beginnings in Hervey Bay, Queensland, her young adult life in Sydney where she co-founded Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Co-Operative in 1986, to her rise through the art world and, most recently, into an academic life.
