David Rankin 'The Blue Bay II' mid century modernism These places appeal to ourFrom one of Australia's esteemed artists, this original screenprint evokes the dynamism of the ocean. In a swirl of colour and shape, it calls forth the water's force, while evading literalness. This ability to suspend allusion and subject is core to Rankin s talent.
