Publisher's Synopsis
Bloke is a photo collection of male nude portraits, set in rural and outback Australia. The book's story takes us on a journey through a day until dusk, observing men in their work locations, from shearing sheds to cattle yards in the morning to mechanic shops in the midday heat, truck stops and depots in the late afternoon and at sunset, we escape with the men into the cooling bushland for a swim in the river. Freeman revisits themes from both the Outback and Larrikin series, creating a sensual heroic story out of stoicism and camaraderie forged in the isolation of the vast and lonely outback. This quality art book is quality large formatted and hardback bound art stock pages.
