John Bloomfield’s Arta Eaten (Archibald Finalist)

Keith Looby entered a portrait of Anne Summers in the 1980 Archibald Prize. Though it was considered to be a serious contender, no prize was awarded that year. Looby recalls it as ‘a bitter experience because of all the politics’.

Looby’s painting subtly reflects their deeply intertwined lives at a time when Hawke was still publicly married to his first wife, Hazel. Hawke and d'Alpuget would eventually marry years later, in 1995.
