Book Launch: Tracy Spinks on Vali Myers
Hawthorn, Woiwurrung Country, 687 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn, Victoria, 3122
Join us to hear Tracy Spinks discuss her book, Vali Myers Dream within a Dream.
For celebrated bohemian and international icon Vali Myers, art and life were inextricably fused. Her prescience as a dancer, a visual artist and a diarist attracted admirers that included Salvador Dali, Jean Cocteau, Tennessee Williams, and Joni Mitchell. But Vali was equally revered for her self-fashioned persona and alternate lifestyle shared with more than 100 animals in the remote canyon of Il Porto, Positano. This 'kingdom by the sea' was the well-spring of her creativity and formed the backdrop of autobiographical pen and ink drawings that are scattered in private collections across the world.
