Sobre IBD

As their freinds leave for Europe and the government gets tough with the unions a bohemian community is enjoying the euphoria of youth.It was their dreamtime. The wider world beckoned from the white ships sailing past Rangitoto Island but the dream was also here on the Takapuna shoreline of Auckland where the artist Melior Farbro grew his vegetables and let Cecilia Skyways follow her own form of Zen Buddhism in his garden hut. Where Curl Skidmore his brilliant young head full of novels waiting to be unravelled could dream of God Fame Nirvana Great Love or maybe just sex. Where not even the harbourfront strike of 1951 could convince them that life wasn’t about poetry and painting and potential.
