In the Walter Neurath Memorial Lecture, Professor Pollock proposes the avant-garde as a series of gambits. Based on Gauguin's 1892 painting of his Tahitian wife, Manao Tupapau, she poses questions of cultural, sexual and ethnic difference to make us all self-critical in regard to art history.

    Always fascinating to reframe what the media wants us to believe... and Pollock is definitely the writer adn the analyst to help us do it!
