Steve Rosendale’s ‘Carte Blanche’ is named for the French phrase denoting complete liberty to act as one wishes. It is creative freedom, 007 license to do whatever necessary, a sentiment imbued with filmic nostalgia.

In black and white Rosendale creates an immersive cinematic world. The scene occurs in a universe that we will never experience and yet it is somehow familiar. What is intrigue amputated from meaning?

Since the early 2000s, Rosendale has exhibited regularly across Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. A finalist in the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize, his work graces the walls of corporate and private collections in Australia and overseas. For collectors of pop art and connoisseurs of film, ‘Carte Blanche’ is an exhilarating find.
