      PEGGY PERRINS SHAW (1917-2009) Altissimo 1980 goauche on paper signed and date lower right: Peggy Perrins Shaw / 1980 titled on handwritten label verso 33.5 x 51cm PROVENANCE: Leonard Joel, Melbourne, 2007 David Bradshaw Fine Art, Melbourne Little Malop Fine Art Gallery, Geelong (label attached verso) Private collection, Melbourne OTHER NOTES: Peggy Perrins Shaw commenced her training at the National Gallery School, under George Bell, in Melbourne in 1948 under the postwar training scheme when she was in her early thirties. In 1956 Peggy married historian Alan Shaw and their circle of friends included John Brack, Fred Williams and John Olsen. She shared their deep affection for the forms seen in nature however in the early 1970's this was at odds with the vanguard push towards port-object art and interests in conceptualism, process and performance - a backlash against the formal and political terms of late modernist painting and sculpture. It was at this period that she widened her approach and further developed the abstract qualities of her art. From this period onwards she moved between styles, her imagery ranging from tight to more free. "An artist primarily concerned with the natural world and its abstract, painterly possibilities." Lesley Harding, from Monash University Museum of Art website.
