John Dowie

John Dowie: A life in the round celebrates eight decades of artistic achievement by a great Australian sculptor, painter and writer. Creator of such popular and significant public sculptures as the Three Rivers fountain in Victoria Square, Alice in Rymill Park, the Victor Richardson gates at Adelaide Oval and the Sir Ross Smith Memorial at Adelaide Airport, John Dowie's art will already be familiar to many. Tracey Lock-Weir charts Dowie's progress over the years and her informative essay is illuminated by John Dowie's own warm, humorous writings. The book features a full colour gallery of Dowie's best and most-loved works.
