Biography

 Margaret Worth was born in Adelaide ans studied at the South Australian School of Art (Adelaide) 1962-68. She later studied at the School of Visual Arts (New York) 1969-70 and Columbia University 1970-72. The artist is Adelaide based but travels frequently.

Her screenprints of the 1960s are closely related, and are of similar quality, to the hard-edge prints and sculpture of her contemporaries Alun Leach Jones, Nigel Lendon, Cecil Hardy and Sydney Ball.
