About this Event

JEFA Gallery in conjunction with Newstead Art & Penrith Reginal Gallery is proud to present Blak Douglas: The Halfway Line, the landmark publication accompanying the artist’s powerful Mid-Career Survey at the Penrith Regional Gallery, curated by Djon Mundine OAM and Toby Chapman. This beautifully produced volume captures the full scope of Blak Douglas’s practice — from early works to his most recent and politically charged pieces — offering a definitive portrait of one of Australia’s most vital contemporary artists.

Rich with historical context, stunning reproductions, and behind-the-scenes documentation, the book stands as both a collector’s item and an essential cultural record.

The Contributors
The publication is anchored by an insightful essay from leading curator and cultural thinker Djon Mundine, a candid and engaging Q&A with artist Karla Dickens, and a revealing interview with Blak Douglas himself. Supported by thoughtful design and documentary photography throughout (including art direction and photographic contributions from Katherine Cordwell), the book brings together the voices that best frame and illuminate the potency of Douglas’s work. While many helped shape the project, these key contributors provide the intellectual and emotional foundation of the publication.

To celebrate the launch, JEFA Gallery is offering a signed, limited-edition copy — available exclusively through this exhibition. Even more exciting, collectors can also acquire an artwork from the accompanying show, making this a rare opportunity to secure both the publication and a major work from this defining moment in the artist’s career.

This is the perfect moment to deepen your collection and support an artist whose voice continues to reshape the national conversation.
