An Authors' Section of the NSW District was established in August 1921 to protect the interests of Australian Authors and in particular to act against the importation into· Australia of syndicated literary material. The Section lapsed in 1926 and was reconstructed in 1935 as the Authors' and Artists' Section. The AJA NSW District Ethics Committee was formed on 7 July 1942 to prepare and administer a Code of Ethics which was adopted in August 1942. The Code bound all members of the NSW District to standards of professional conduct and the Ethics Committee continued its operations through the 1960's and 1970's as the Judiciary Committee.

  • Double Lives : Rex Battarbee & Albert Namatjira
    Double Lives Double Lives : Rex Battarbee & Albert Namatjira Martin Edmond Thesis for a Doctorate of Creative Arts The University of Western Sydney July 26, 2013 Statement of Authentication The work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, original except as acknowledged in the text. I hereby declare I have not submitted this material, either in full or in part, for a degree in this or any other institution. signed: ……………………………………… Acknowledgments I would like to thank Nigel Roberts for the generous gift of his archive of research materials; Ivor Indyk for wise supervision; Nick Jose for intelligent readings; Gayle Quarmby for the conversations; Stephen Williamson at the Araluen Centre and Nic Brown at Flinders University Art Musuem for showing me the works; all those at Ngarrutjuta / Many Hands; Maggie Hall for her constant support. Abstract This thesis consists of a creative component which is a dual biography of the two water colour painters, Rex Battarbee and Albert Namatjira, whose relationship was to have a decisive impact on Australian art; and an exegesis which describes the process of the making of that biography in such a way as to illuminate the issues, contentious or otherwise, that may arise during the progress of a biographical inquiry. The dual biography is focussed upon the public lives of the two men, one white Australian, the other Indigenous Australian of the Arrernte people, and especially upon their professional activities as painters. It is not an exercise in psychological inquiry nor an attempt to disclose the private selves of the two artists; rather, my interest is in describing the means by which each man found his calling as an artist; the relationship, life-long, which developed between them; the times in which they lived and how this affected the courses of their lives; and the results of their work in the public sphere.

  • "Jacky Jacky Was a Smart Young Fella": a Study of Art and Aboriginality in South East Australia 1900-1980 Sylvia Klein
    "Jacky Jacky Was a Smart Young Fella": A study of art and Aboriginality in south east Australia 1900-1980 Sylvia Kleinert A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University, April 1994. 7 Urban initiatives i. Introduction When Aborigines moved to Melbourne in the late 1930s they gained some degree of freedom but they were still disadvantaged and experienced racial discrimination. The leadership provided by Bill Onus and others alleviated this situation by forging a new sense of identity and cohesion. Onus had a highly developed awareness of his own Aboriginality. Through the entrepreneurial activities he initiated in theatre and art, in the post-war period, he offered Aborigines employment and training and he fostered a new sense of cultural pride. Onus empowered south eastern Aborigines by selectively incorporating from the art of remote communities. As a cross-cultural mediator, he actively negotiated new relationships with the majority culture and, in some cases, altered their prevailing attitudes. His activities have been criticised as a commoditization of Aboriginal culture but this response fails to acknowledge that his initiatives laid the foundation for an urban Aboriginal art movement. From the late 1930s, increasing numbers of Aborigines settled in Melbourne.1 Hoping to escape economic depression, racial prejudice and repressive government policies, many Aborigines walked off the last remaining government stations at Lake Tyers and Cummeragunga and they left their fringe camps on the periphery of country towns to move to Melbourne. Formerly, police had forcibly returned Aborigines found camping on the banks of the Yarra river or the South Melbourne beach; now their presence was tolerated as wartime labour shortages created vacancies in soap and munition factories.2 In Melbourne they formed enclaves in the inner-city suburbs of Fitzroy and Preston, mixing within a small, relatively closed community of kin and friends.

  • American-Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land (1948): Its Long-Range Impact
    Send Orders of Reprints at [email protected] The Open Ecology Journal, 2012, 5, 53-83 53 Open Access American-Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land (1948): Its Long-Range Impact Raymond Louis Specht* Botanist, Ecologist, Ethno-botanist, American-Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, Australia Abstract: The American-Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory of Australia was sponsored by the National Geographic Society and the Smithsonian Institution in the United States and the Commonwealth Government of Australia. During 1948, two anthropologists, an archaeologist, four biological scientists and three health and nutrition experts, with two photographers and three support staff, spent eight months studying the ecology of this infertile, monsoonal landscape to learn how the present-day Aborigines who had arrived between 3500 and 5000 years ago - displacing the first hunter-gatherers, the Mimi, who arrived some 53,000 to 60,000 years before - were able to survive throughout the year. The Gondwanan origins of the heathy flora of the sandstones, the grassy eucalypt forests and woodlands on the lateritic earths, the monsoonal rainforests, the wetland and coastal plant communities -with vegetation structures similar to those in southern Australia - inspired long-term research on the physico-chemical processes (aerodynamic, water relations and mineral nutrition) that determine the structure, growth and biodiversity of plant formations throughout Australia.
