In 'Alice Kelly and Family', Le Miere intertwines the iconography of three legendary Australian artists: Charles Blackman, Sidney Nolan, and John Brack. Blackman’s White Rabbit and Alice settle into the backseat, while Nolan’s Ned Kelly takes the wheel of Brack’s The Car (1955), embarking on a whimsical journey through the mythical land of the \"Oz Mods.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFramed by a bright blue sky, this playful work invites viewers to traverse the landscapes of Australian modernism and spark their own interpretations. For collectors craving adventure, don’t let 'Alice Kelly and Family' leave without you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/collections\/philippe-le-miere\"\u003ePhilippe LE MIERE\u003c\/a\u003e (1975 - )\u003cbr\u003e'Alice Kelly and Family' 2026\u003cbr\u003eacrylic on paper\u003cbr\u003eEdition of 25\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eImage Size\u003c\/i\u003e: 26 x 34 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimensions\u003c\/i\u003e: 30 x 42 cm \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSigned\u003c\/i\u003e: Signed, titled and editioned in margin\u003cbr\u003eComes with Letter of Provenance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e(c) The Artist or Assignee\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art and Collectors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45245677174854,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8229\/files\/le-miere-philippe-alice-kelly-and-fami-18036.jpg?v=1782693687","url":"https:\/\/artandcollectors.com\/products\/le-miere-philippe-alice-kelly-and-fami-18036","provider":"Art and Collectors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
