Book Description:
|
An examination of the rare moments of respite between battle and exhaustion, enjoyed by serving soldier and nurse. At the heart of the curatorial ambition we sought to discover and articulate how those who served at Gallipoli retained a sense of self, of home, of humour and their humanity in such a bloody and senseless campaign. The exhibition was framed around the contribution of a single artist, charged with exploring these themes.
