Book excerpt: Step back in time to 1860s Sydney, when ragged children populated the harbour city's slums, picking pockets and scraping a living selling matches and watercress. Neglected youths formed the city's gangs, thieving and assaulting the unwary. These 'larrikins' often ended up in gaol, and received a thorough criminal education from Fagin-esque professors of the art. In 1867 a solution to this problem was found. Fitted out for the reception of New South Wales' delinquent and abandoned boys, a Nautical School Ship was moored permanently within sight of Circular Quay on Sydney Harbour. The Colony's prisons were drained of their young inmates, and they were herded together in their dozens - and later, hundreds - on board. Like a Wicked Noah's Ark is the full and close-up history of this ground-breaking experiment in juvenile reformation, which operated continuously until 1911 on the Vernon and Sobraon.

Download or read book Arts Programming for the Anthropocene written by Bill Gilbert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arts Programming for the Anthropocene argues for a role for the arts as an engaged, professional practice in contemporary culture, charting the evolution of arts over the previous half century from a primarily solitary practice involved with its own internal dialogue to one actively seeking a larger discourse. The chapters investigate the origin and evolution of five academic field programs on three continents, mapping developments in field pedagogy in the arts over the past twenty years. Drawing upon the collective experience of artists and academicians in the United States, Australia, and Greece operating in a wide range of social and environmental contexts, it makes the case for the necessity of an update to ensure the real world relevance and applicability of tertiary arts education. Based on thirty years of experimentation in arts pedagogy, including the creation of the Land Arts of the American West (LAAW) program and Art and Ecology discipline at the University of New Mexico, this book is written for arts practitioners, aspiring artists, art educators, and those interested in how the arts can contribute to strengthening cultural resiliency in the face of rapid environmental change.
