Art, Design & Photography Australiana Local & Regional History
Deus Ex Machina by Peter Tapp is a 1989 illustrated paperback that explores Australian art, artists and exhibition history, making it a valuable resource for both young adult and adult readers interested in art, culture and Australian history. The book is a vintage non‑fiction title that also touches on broader topics such as business, engineering and environmental themes, reflecting its wide‑reaching appeal across multiple categories.
The paperback is in good reading condition with clean, tidy pages and a tight binding that holds the illustrated content securely. The cover shows some wear, scuffs and creases typical of a well‑loved vintage volume, but there is no writing, inscription or ex libris inside.
Printed in English in Australia, this smoke‑free home copy offers a clear view of Tapp’s detailed photographs and commentary, making it a solid addition to any collection of art, history or photography books.
