Nigel Thomson (1945–1999) is an Australian artist who won the Archibald Prize twice. Known for satirical paintings of Australian society. He studied at the Julian Ashton Art School in Sydney and later taught artistic composition at that institution. He was art tutor at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. He won the Archibald with ''Chandler Coventry'' in 1983, and ''Barbara Blackman'' in 1997. Thomson's painting of Patrick White's long-term partner, Manoly Lascaris was rejected from the 1995 Archibald and hung in the Salon des Refusés. He won the Sulman Prize in 1983 with ''Marat, The Unsophisticated will be Shocked by the Depiction of your Death: or, the Artist Answers His Critics''. This painting was based on Jacques-Louis David's famous painting ''Death of Marat'' showing Jean-Paul Marat dead in a bathtub. He jointly won the Sulman Prize in 1986 along with Wendy Sharpe, for ''The State Institution''. ==External links== *(Australian art gallery ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nigel Thomson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
