The opening night at Eva Breuer Art Dealer on Tuesday 3rd April, 2001 was a great success. In attendance were three of Australia's greatest artists; David Boyd, and special guests John Coburn and Charles Blackman.
Much anticipation surrounded this series of paintings by David Boyd. This is an exhibition not to be missed. 
Now, in his seventy-seventh year and the elder of the Boyd clan of artists, we are seeing in David a mature painter, at the full height of his powers, creating dynamic and confronting work.
David has always been deeply concerned about humanity and injustice. He has created in this exhibition a relevant mythology that translates today's concerns into exciting, searing images to haunt the heart and mind.

Art author Nadine Amadio says,
'The exhibition is both poetic and exciting. Fierce colours and images circle the great disc of the sun. Luminous blue gazes glow as if the light comes from within. Boyd's use of mythology and symbolism also reveal an Australian landscape which is both lyrical and painterly. This is an exhibition that should not be missed. It is a timely series from an artist of passion, imagination and ever-growing humanity.'

In 1959 when Boyd painted his Tasmanian series, the issue was historical. In the Australia of the 21st century, the issue of reconciliation is very much part of the spirit and thinking of today.
