Renee Porter, John Peart - Paintings 1964-2004, retrospective exhibition catalogue, Campbelltown Art Gallery, see p 32, for a larger painting from the series in the Newcastle Art Gallery Collection and p 9:
“Daniel Thomas evoked musical analogies in responding to the series of paintings that included ‘Coloursquare’ 1968: ‘Rhythm, resonance, echo, flow, continuity; the qualities of music are the qualities of Peart’s paintings. It does not all happen within the canvas. His pictures expand. They claim the space that surrounds them and the time beyond the moment when the spectator sees them.” Renee Porter, op. cit.
