Jan Hendrix is a Dutch-born, Mexico-based contemporary artist. His
work is all about observation and analysis; nature and its diff
erent ways of representing and telling extended stories, often in a
non- linear narrative. Based on an exhibition at Kew Gardens, this
book is a visual report of Hendrix's multiple visits to the Kamay
Botany Bay Area of New South Wales, Australia, made over a 20-year
period. Beautiful and thought-provoking works convey his response
to the fragile, changing landscape, under constant threat of fi re
and destruction. His work also draws on first collections of plants
at Kamay Botany Bay documented by botanists Joseph Banks, Daniel
Solander and Sydney Parkinson as part of the HMS Endeavour
expedition in 1770. Supporting texts by Art Historian Dawn Ades,
CEO of the Bundanon Trust Deborah Ely, and filmmaker Michael
Leggett contextualise the work of the artist. With a foreword by
Kew Director Richard Deverell.
