Garry Shead

Garry Shead (b.1942)

Garry Shead, winner of the 1993 Archibald Prize, is a noted painter and printmaker whose works highlight a distinctive love of the Australian landscape. He brings romantic and heroic elements to Australian scenes. His Stockman series of paintings of the late 1980s, were followed respectively in the 1990s by the D.H. Lawrence series based on the Lawrence's book "Kangaroo" and the gently satirical "Monarchy" suite of paintings. Represented by the National Gallery of Australia and numerous state and regional galleries, Shead also won the Power studio grant, Cite Internationale des Arts, Paris in 1973.
