Quoting from the flap of the dust jacket: Jacques Goudstikker (1897-1940) a Jewish Dutch art dealer took over his father s gallery in 1919 and quickly made his presence felt-introducing a more international thrust to the gallery and demonstrating a keen business acumen Goudstikker became one of the most successful art dealers and tastemakers in Amsterdam between the wars.Tragically Goudstikker died in flight from the Nazis in 1940 and his enormous collection of art including approximately 1400 paintings was looted by Reichsmarschall Hermann Goring.

'This compelling book considers [cultural issues] within the context of unique, stunning art from the remote north Queensland Aboriginal community of Aurukun. It explains how Aurukun art production absorbed the colonial impact of mission and government intervention throughout the 20th century and provides the powerful visual symbols for the political struggles of the Wik people to regain land ownership and social justice.
