  • Drawing the Line Between Native and Stranger
    DRAWING THE LINE BETWEEN NATIVE AND STRANGER Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of New South Wales for the degree of Master of Fine Arts by Research by Fiona Melanay MacDonald March 2010 ABSTRACT Drawing the Line between Native and Stranger Fiona MacDonald The Research Project Drawing the Line between Native and Stranger explores the repercussions of the foundational meeting at Botany Bay through a culture of protest and opposition. The project took form as sets of print works presented in an exhibition and thus the work contributes to the ongoing body of Art produced about the ways that this foundational meeting has shaped our culture. The Research Project is set out in three broad overlapping categories: Natives and Strangers indicated in the artwork by the use of Sydney Language and specific historic texts; Environment; the cultural clash over land use, and Continuing Contest — the cycle of exploitation and loss. These categories are also integrated within a Legend that details historical material that was used in the development of the key compositional elements of the print folio. The relationship between Native and Stranger resonates in the work of many Australian artists. To create a sense of the scope, range and depth of the dialogue between Native and Stranger, artists whose heritage informs their work were discussed to throw some light from their particular points of view. In conclusion, a document and suite of print-based work traces the interaction and transformation of both Native and Stranger

Martin Walch f/CJrf :_, /v~lc A /(. 0,, 'Zo°f iii Abstract: This research project sets out to demonstrate that a contemporary application of systematic drawing principles to the representation of natural environments could extend beyond the linear conventions upon which these principles are founded, and thereby produce dynamic and expressive interpretations of human and non-human systems. The project was pursued through an exploration of themes central to representation of natural environments. These include; the technologies of mapping systems; the construction of temporal and spatial frameworks; the aesthetics of natural environments; and concepts related to locality and placement. Research methods included the reconstruction of optical devices, the undertaking of extensive field trips, and the learning of new computer languages.

Armed with a rapier wit and desire to pick beneath the paint, she travels across the continent on a stand-up comedian mission to debunk the myths of the Australian Identity as defined by our art canon. If our great works are to be believed, the average Aussie is a bloke in a hat who is Hannah Gadsby hell bent on conquering our gum-tree infested landscape singlehandedly. Why has this mono-vision of Australia is on a mission to persisted for so long? debunk the myths Surely there is more to us than our most famous artworks suggest? From first settlement to Federation to post-mul- ticulturalism, Hannah will forge an irreverent new image of of the Australian who we think we are through a re-examination of Australian art history. By digging a bit deeper and uncovering often- identity perpetuated ignored histories and artists, Hannah will take on these painted white/male clichés to show us a more colourful and by our national art. feminine vision of Australia. Knocking on the studio doors of some of this country’s most interesting contemporary artists, Hannah will engage with a new generation who are determined to break open the ideas of what it means to be Australian. Many of these artists’ works speak directly to our historical canon, chal- lenging its point of view and re-interpreting it to ignite the SCREEN EDUCATION © ATOM 2014 © ATOM SCREEN EDUCATION issues still haunting our political and cultural landscapes.

  • Large, Friable and Unglazed: Display Systems Recently Used at the National Gallery of Victoria Ruth Shervington
    Large, friable and unglazed: display systems recently used at the National Gallery of Victoria Ruth Shervington ABSTRACT In 2012 and 2013, the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) displayed a number of artworks comprised of friable media that were not to be exhibited in the traditional framed manner and required problem-solving in their preparation. Two of these artworks were of large scale and glazing wasn’t to be included. Different systems were used for each, some devised by others and adaptations made. This paper outlines the factors taken into account when deciding upon the systems, thoughts about their success and possible future improvements. Keywords unglazed, friable, display system INTRODUCTION Display of artworks has commonly been an aspect of the paper conservator’s role to greater or lesser extent, however in the last half decade it has presented more challenges and required more innovative thinking and options. As artists have been experimenting with materials and construction methods, they have of course also been experimenting with ways in which they want their audiences to engage with their artworks. In the last two years the NGV has had a variety of paper based artworks displayed in non-conventional ways. For example in the current exhibition titled, Melbourne Now there are a group of four Laith McGregor drawings comprising one artwork that is displayed on the surface of a ping-pong table on which the public plays the game; and a Brian Martin charcoal drawing comprised of 30 sheets Figure 1. Tom NICHOLSON Drawings and correspondence 1 that is displayed on the ground with an acrylic sheet on top, (2008-11) Willow charcoal, compressed charcoal and white pastel on three sheets of paper 250 x 330 cm (image and sheet).

The enduring and increasing strength and popularity of contemporary landscape painting In Tasman ia encourages us to attempt to return landscape painting to centre stage. It has tended to be rather neglected as a form, espeCially within academic circles. This is an opportunity for us to balance the record, be more inclUSive of the work of the wider artistic community, and attract a broader general audience to the Plimsoll Gallery. Tasmanian audiences are not given access to high quality contemporary landscape painting exhibitions as often as one might think. While the basic form of landscape painting IS traditional, this particular exhibition will stretch audiences' understanding of how the genre is be ing defined and developed now. The range of artists included in the show will ensure that Visitors will be satisfied and challenged - satisfied by the standing and ability of the artists and challenged by the content of the works. We also hope that projects such as this will add to the strength and commitment within the School to the UniverSity of Tasmania's Theme Area, "Natural Environment and Wilderness ': Our exhibition will therefore complement and develop our commitment to landscape both as something special to this island and special to thiS School.
