Barbara Brash (3 November 1925 – 25 February 1998) was a twentieth-century post-war Australian artist known for her painting and innovative printmaking. In an extensive career she contributed to the Melbourne Modernist art scene, beside other significant women artists including: Mary Macqueen, Dorothy Braund, Anne Marie Graham, Constance Stokes, Anne Montgomery (artist) and Nancy Grant.[1]

Career

During a 50-year career, Barbara Brash (1925-1998) experimented to extend the limits of the graphic medium, working in and combining woodcuts, linocuts, lithographs and screenprints, so that she became a pivotal artist in a post-WWII printmaking revival in Melbourne. Her work attracted the attention of the public as early as 1953; “Unusual grey and silver invitation cards have been designed by Barbara Brash for the "winter dinner" dance the Whernside Junior Auxiliary of the Royal Melbourne Hospital will hold at Ciro's on June 19. Barbara, who is an old St. Catherine's girl, is doing an art course at the Melbourne Technical College."[2]

Brash began printmaking in 1947 when she studied etching in informal classes run by Harold Freedman at the Melbourne Technical College (now RMIT), simultaneous with her training in painting and drawing at the National Gallery School. Furthermore, as an avid student she undertook additional classes with George Bell at his private school, where her work began to reflect the ideas and practices of modern art including the principle of dynamic symmetry. As part of the George Bell Group, a group consisting of Russell Drysdale, Geoffrey Jones, Edwin Robinson, Dorothy Braund, Alan Warren, Roma Thompson, Barbara Brash, Peter Cox, Constance Stokes, Anne Montgomery, Ron Center, George Bell, Sali Herman, and Alan Sumner,[3] she exhibited frequently in their group shows.

Brash benefitted from revived interest in printmaking among the city's galleries and art schools, and local and émigré artists, including screenprinter Senbergs and etcher Kluge-Pott, transmitted new techniques to eager local practitioners.

The Herald newspaper art reviewer 'L.T.’, surveying the year’s exhibitions of 1949, associates Brash with Alan Warren, Roger Kemp, Arthur Boyd, Keith Nichol, Eric Smith, Wesley Penberthey, Samuel Fullbrook, Robert Grieve, Dorothy Braund, John Brack, Leonard French and Barbara Robertson, as the “the nucleus of a new and strong movement.”[4]

She also was a foundational member of a group which formed in Melbourne, Victoria in 1961 from the Print Studio in the Art School of the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology [RMIT], and its other members were Tate Adams, Hertha Kluge-Pott, Grahame King, Janet Dawson, Fred Williams, and Jan Senbergs.[5] In 1966, Stuart Purves took on managment of Australian Galleries for the next five decades and during the 1970s, included Brash in its 'stable' alongside George Baldessin, Jeffrey Smart and Brett Whiteley.[6]

Brash often combined or modified existing techniques and materials, developing and exploiting a proficiency that encompassed a broad gamut of technical printmaking processes, such as screenprints which she adopted earlier than most of her contemporaries and exploited for its intensity of opaque or transparent colour. She continued to work into her seventies and embraced the nascent field of digital printmaking technologies as enthusiastically as traditional media.

Reception

It is a reflection of her innovation that Alan McCulloch writing in 1953 in The Herald noted Brash's application of flat, intense hues in "colorful works after the pattern of cut outs…,"[7] while The Bulletin condemned it; “There is Barbara Brash’s “Seated Woman,” whose flesh and nightdress have all the variety of a coat of whitewash applied to a smooth surface.”[8] In 1954 The Age art critic called attention to the "decorative effect" of two-dimensional pattern in her colored lino-cuts,”[9] an observation that The Herald critic repeated; “Barbara Brash is boldly decorative in a series of color lino-cuts.[10] The Age also drew attention in the same Forty Prints by Ten Artists show at Peter Bray Gallery, opened by Ursula Hoff, to Brash's spanning of oil and watercolour painting and printing, noting that "she feels this new medium [lithography] has a wide scope for experiment and is something which should be developed.[11]

The same show traveled to Brisbane where Courier-Mail critic Gertrude Langer recognised "exceptional gifts" that in Brash's "colour linocut Native Dancer (which the group used as their poster), could not be bettered in composition and colour."[12] Another Brisbane report noted that “This lithograph exhibition — the first of its kind in Australia — has aroused considerable interest, buyers coming from as-far afield as New Zealand and Tasmania. Particularly noteworthy is the work of Barbara Brash, Kenneth Jack and Walter Gheradin, although all 10 artists excel at individualised style arid skilful handling of their media.”

Another 1954 exhibition at Peter Bray over November–December prompted Arnold Shore to comment on Brash's "more exciting colours,"[13] and though Alan McCulloch condemned the show for its ‘absence of ideas,’ he conceded “Barbara Brash's Woman Seated has the forthright quality of a vividly stencilled fabric design”[14] while Allan David in the Jewish News affirmed its "decorative" "colour and design.” In 1955 Arnold Shore in The Argus starts to see "romantic suggestion" in the “elusive variety of pattern ... of a Landscape, by Barbara Brash.”[15]

Modernist developments in 1955 still aroused suspicion in some quarters. Of the December show at Peter Bray of the George Bell Group the traditionalist magazine The Bulletin is typically sardonic; "Barbara Brash’s Landscape with Houses is a little looser [in brushwork], as is her Old Farm, which has two trees, two wheels and a ladder, and which is easily recognisable as contemporary“[16] But by 1960 the Canberra Times praised innovation; “Barbara Brash illustrates the use of overprinting in lino cut on rice paper, using many strong, transparent colours. The Peacock is a radiating composition with pattern and line assisting the glowing colours to make it most decorative,"[17] and of the same show "Melbourne Prints," when it traveled to South Australia, The Bulletin's Geoffrey Dutton was prepared to appreciate her experiments; “Barbara Brash lays on color with the most notable effect in the show, in separate blocks in Lighthouse and in gauzy veils in Peacock."[18]
