Since then, 'The Wizard of Oz' has journeyed across history, meeting new interpretations at every turn. From an allegory for economic reform, to a metaphor for immigration, humanism and even, the feminist plight, Dorothy's quest may hit everyone differently, but it still hits hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, the modern classic awakes on Philippe Le Miere's canvas. For him, Dorothy's story is about ripping back the curtain, questioning dogma and most strikingly, daring to be wise. Born from walking his own Yellow Brick Road, this work celebrates the myriad of meanings a good story springs. Staring into Le Miere's glistening crystal ball, ask yourself, what do you see in the Great and Powerful Oz?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work is a pochoir (posh-waar) print. Emerging in late nineteenth-century Paris, pochoir printmaking sees an artist layer and hand-colour each component of their image. Unmechanised, this process gives each edition its own ‘aura’ while also requiring serious time and skill. Indeed, by the 1930s pochoirs had all but died under the rise of more efficient, mechanised printing techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was master printmaker Jeffrey Makin who first linked Le Miere's experimental process with the forgotten early twentieth-century practice. For Le Miere, working by hand represents a critical counterpoint to his subject matter. Where mainstream cinema is technologically immaculate, Le Miere's work is fluid, textural and deliciously idiosyncratic. Layers of paint disturb a perfect surface, registering like man-made pixels.

Since then, The Wizard of Oz has journeyed across history, meeting new interpretations at every turn. Today, the modern classic awakes on Philippe Le Miere's canvas.

As bright as technicolour Oz, ‘classic wizard of oz magic ruby shoes’ is equal parts nostalgia and fantasy.

Emerging in late nineteenth-century Paris, pochoir printmaking sees an artist layer and hand-colour each component of their image.

This work is a pochoir (posh-waar) print. Emerging in late nineteenth-century Paris, pochoir printmaking involves layering and hand-colouring each component of the image. This unmechanized process gives each edition its own ‘aura’ while requiring significant time and skill. By the 1930s, pochoir had largely faded with the rise of more efficient, mechanized printing techniques. Master printmaker Jeffrey Makin was the first to connect Le Miere's experimental process with this nearly forgotten early twentieth-century practice. Subtle disturbances in the painted surface, with elements slightly misregistered, enhance its textural appeal. Once embraced by Matisse and Picasso, pochoir is now revived by Le Miere, uniting art and craftsmanship to imbue each piece with the essence of an original painting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art and Collectors","offers":[{"title":"Unframed","offer_id":44656679944262,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Framed","offer_id":44656679977030,"sku":null,"price":330.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/le-miere-philippe-alice-and-kelly-at-t-16402.jpg?v=1734141134"},{"product_id":"leunig-michael-untitled-connected-c-16473","title":"Michael Leunig 'Untitled [Creatures Great and Small]'","description":"\u003cp\u003eMichael Leunig was an iconic Australian cartoonist, writer, painter, philosopher and poet, best known for his cartoons published in the Sydney Morning Herald and Age newspapers.

Born in Figueres, Spain, he gained fame for paintings and iconography most famously featuring melting clocks.

Beyond painting, he worked in sculpture, film, and fashion, becoming a cultural icon noted for his eccentric personality and distinctive moustache. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1972, Salvador Dalí created a series of prints titled The Twelve Apostles, which included a depiction of Thomas, one of Christ’s disciples. This series reflected Dalí’s fascination with religion, mysticism, and spirituality. The artwork blends his surrealist style with religious symbolism, using vivid color, dreamlike imagery, and abstract forms to convey spiritual depth.

Arkley’s work is characterised by an ongoing fascination with the everyday, famous for his psychedelic depictions of suburbia. Across Arkley’s expansive practice, he borrows imagery from human figures, masks and suburban homes that reflect on his childhood spent in the Melbourne suburb of Surrey Hills. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArkley’s 1996 mixed media work, 'Zappo Head,' features a human head with geometric cut outs across its face. Seen as a mix between, “a death mask and a clown’s face,” this striking work is a self-portrait of sorts, using this alter-ego to capture a snapshot of the artist’s psyche. This portrait plays with the ability for faces to be seen as masks, deviating between childlike whimsy and adult introspection. The 'Zappo Head' series is a captivating motif from Arkley’s career and showcases his eye for iconic imagery. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArkley’s work features in the collections of several major Australian institutions, including the National Gallery of Victoria, the Art Gallery of New South Wales and National Portrait Gallery.
