Australian artist David Noonan (born 1969) uses found imagery as
the basis for his screenprinted canvases and sculptures. Enigmatic
figures, printed in grainy black and white or sepia, pose in these
elaborate artworks, invoking covert and futuristic rituals. This
monograph will be the first comprehensive overview of Noonan's
work.
The official Australian casualty statistics suffered by the men of
the Australian Imperial Force in the First World War are seriously
wrong, with significant inaccuracies and omissions. Groundbreaking
research exhaustively examining over 12,000 individual soldiers'
records has revealed that hospitalisations for wounding, illness
and injury suffered by men of the AIF are five times greater than
officially acknowledged today. Why has it taken nearly one hundred
years for this to come to light? Was it a conspiracy to suppress
the toll, incompetence of Australia's official war historians Bean
and Butler, or was it simply the unquestioning acceptance of the
official record? You are invited on the journey in this book to
find the truth. The findings are startling and will rewrite
Australia's casualty statistics of the First World War. Lest we
forget.
