Download or read book Drawing Sybylla written by Odette Kelada and published by Apollo Books. This book was released on 2017 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On stage, a woman named Sybil Jones is making a speech. She is talking about the significance of Charlotte Perkins Gilman's short story 'The Yellow Wallpaper'. Behind her sits a panel of writers, facing their audience, and one writer drawing Sybil's likeness in a contemplative daze. The Sybil in the writer's drawing starts to move, like the women behind Gilman's wallpaper. She shakes. She takes the writer by the hand and leads her down into the paper, into the dark recesses of her mind, and into Australia's past - into the real and imagined lives of Australia's women writers. Drawing Sybylla is a novel about the challenges women writers have faced in pursuing the writing life.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Australian Drawing by : Janet McKenzie
Download or read book Contemporary Australian Drawing written by Janet McKenzie and published by Macmillan Art Pub. This book was released on 2012 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scotland-based Dr Janet McKenzie, long-term deputy editor of the renowned art journal Studio International, first published on Australian drawing with Macmillan back in 1986. Twenty-one years later she met Dr Irene Barberis, an Australian artist who was in the UK representing Metasenta, an international arts research organisation focused on drawing and based at Melbournes RMIT University. Dr Christopher Heathcote's contribution also focuses on the teaching of drawing in Australia. Janet McKenzie visited Australia in 2008 to update her research and exercise a global perspective on the current state of drawing in this country. Her book introduces works by 78 selected artists from across the country. They include prominent figures such as Peter Booth, Allan Mitelman, John Olsen, Mirka Mora, Mike Parr, Kevin Lincoln, Jenny Watson, Jan Senbergs and Wendy Stavrianos, among many others. Recognition of the importance of drawing has sometimes wavered in recent times, but most artists would agree that drawing, in whatever medium and however it is executed, is an essential process in the development of ideas leading to creative outcomes. Often, as art history suggests and this book demonstrates, drawing can be an art in and of itself. This timely account of the art of drawing in Australia is lavishly illustrated and will have wide appeal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautifully illustrated book is an informative and fascinating chronological survey of Australian drawing since 1770. Defining a drawing as "any unique work on paper", Sayer examines a wide range of them in relation to the social influences of the period in which they were created, the genre and the medium, and discusses stylistic changes and changes in perception such as in the many "revivals" that drawing has experienced since the 1920's. He also provides drawings of natural history, Aborigines and landscape, portraits, scenes of contemporary life of the 1850's, decorative drawing, watercolors, and examples of surrealistic techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive survey uniquely covers both Aboriginal art and that of European Australians, providing a revealing examination of the interaction between the two. Painting, bark art, photography, rock art, sculpture, and the decorative arts are all fully explored to present the rich texture of Australian art traditions. Well-known artists such as Margaret Preston, Rover Thomas, and Sidney Nolan are all discussed, as are the natural history illustrators, Aboriginal draughtsmen, and pastellists, whose work is only now being brought to light by new research. Taking the European colonization of the continent in 1788 as his starting point, Sayers highlights important issues concerning colonial art and women artists in this fascinating new story of Australian art.

Book Synopsis Drawing the Global Colour Line by : Marilyn Lake
Download or read book Drawing the Global Colour Line written by Marilyn Lake and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At last a history of Australia in its dynamic global context. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, in response to the mobilisation and mobility of colonial and coloured peoples around the world, self-styled 'white men's countries' in South Africa, North America and Australasia worked in solidarity to exclude those peoples they defined as not-white--including Africans, Chinese, Indians, Japanese and Pacific Islanders. Their policies provoked in turn a long international struggle for racial equality. Through a rich cast of characters that includes Alfred Deakin, WEB Du Bois, Mahatma Gandhi, Lowe Kong Meng, Tokutomi Soho, Jan Smuts and Theodore Roosevelt, leading Australian historians Marilyn Lake and Henry Reynolds tell a gripping story about the circulation of emotions and ideas, books and people in which Australia emerged as a pace-setter in the modern global politics of whiteness. The legacy of the White Australia policy still cases a shadow over relations with the peoples of Africa and Asia, but campaigns for racial equality have created new possibilities for a more just future. Remarkable for the breadth of its research and its engaging narrative, Drawing the Global Colour Line offers a new perspective on the history of human rights and provides compelling and original insight into the international political movements that shaped the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: This exhibition catalogue was published to accompany an exhibition of the same title at Heide Museum of Modern Art, Melbourne in 2010-2011.Featuring works by a range of modern and contemporary artists, this exhibition demonstrates the great variety of approaches to the activity of drawing in twentieth-century Australian art. Drawing is widely considered to be the most personal and immediate of art disciplines and the works presented here highlight the individual qualities of each artist's draughtsmanship. Collectively, they also enable us to identify the characteristic modes of drawing integral to the ethos and temper of the times.Many of the selected works were formerly owned by Heide founders John and Sunday Reed. They present a rich account of the artists associated with Heide's history and the advent of modern drawing in Australia. The circle surrounding the Reeds in the 1930s and 1940s - Sam Atyeo, Arthur Boyd, Joy Hester, Sidney Nolan, John Perceval and Albert Tucker - used drawing in ways unprecedented in Australia. Rather than making drawings just as studies for paintings, these artists created independent works that possessed a sense of immediacy and vitality. On display here are iconic and lesser known examples, including Nolan's earliest abstract drawings; the expressive wartime images of Boyd and Perceval; and powerful works from Hester's celebrated Faces and Love series.By the 1950s the autonomy of drawing as an independent art form had been affirmed and a diversification of styles and techniques emerged. Such developments are reflected in the more recent works in this exhibition, including the surrealist-inspired `automatic' images of Erica McGilchrist, the lively outpourings of John Olsen, in which he fuses the acts of drawing and painting, and the commanding charcoal drawings of Peter Booth.
