Philippe Le Miere’s 'Study for Arrival on a Summer’s Day' merges two iconic images from Australian art history: Charles Blackman’s whimsical voyage of Alice and the White Rabbit in All on the Summer’s Day, and Brett Whiteley’s historically charged The Arrival.

Le Miere’s rendition intertwines these stories, exploring themes of national identity against the backdrop of Sydney’s iconic harbour. 'Study for Arrival on a Summer’s Day' encourages viewers to engage with its complex symbolism and evolving historical narratives.

For collectors of pop and contemporary art, or those looking for a new perspective on Australian modernism, ‘Study for Arrival on a Summer’s Day’ has arrived.
