In episode 2 of the series Dangerously Modern we follow the painter Stella Bowen, who left Adelaide for Europe and was part of a storied avant-garde art scene in Paris in the 1920s.

Overseas, a young Stella met the writer Ford Maddox Ford, a relationship that sparked her intellectually but ultimately sabotaged her own career. It wasn't until she struck out on her own as a single mother, that Stella painted her most compelling work and achieved a fragile success.

Produced and presented by Rosa Ellen and commissioned by the Art Gallery of South Australia.
