Download or read book Design and Heritage written by Grace Lees-Maffei and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-29 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design and Heritage provides the first extended study of heritage from the point of view of design history. Exploring the material objects and spaces that contribute to our experience of heritage, the volume also examines the processes and practices that shape them. Bringing together 18 case studies, written by authors from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Brazil, Norway, India, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, the book questions how design functions to produce heritage. Including provocative case studies of objects that reinterpret visual symbols of cultural identity and buildings and monuments that evoke feelings of national pride and historical memory, as well as landscapes embedded with trauma, contributors consider how we can work to develop adequate shared conceptual models of heritage and apply them to design and its histories. Exploring the distinction between tangible and intangible heritages, the chapters consider what these categories mean for design history and heritage. Finally, the book questions whether it might be possible to promote a truly equitable understanding of heritage that illuminates the social, cultural and economic roles of design. Design and Heritage demonstrates that design historical methods of inquiry contribute significantly to critical heritage studies. Academics, researchers and students engaged in the study of heritage, design history, material culture, folklore, art history, architectural history and social and cultural history will find much to interest them within the pages of the book.

Download or read book My Country All Gone the White Men Have Stolen It written by Fred Cahir and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wadawurrung are the Aboriginal people whose land includes the cities now known as Ballarat and Geelong. This book is a history about relations between the Wadawurrung and the ngamadjidj (generally translated as white stranger belonging to the sea) in the period 1800 -1870. The history of inter-racial relations between the Wadawurrung and the British colonisers is distinctive. Divided into chronological and thematic sections, the book chronicles three waves of invasion: the early invasion period incorporating trespassers from England and France, predominately from the sea, the sheepherders or squatters who followed in their wake and usurped the Wadawurrung of all their Country for sheep runs, and the third wave of invaders - the gold seekers.It examines the adaptations of the Wadawurrung to the European invaders in some detail by including lengthy excerpts of first hand accounts. Indeed, a feature of this book is the lengthy transcripts from the archival sources, often unabridged, which increases its historical value and provides the detail and the tone of the events as no historian can.This history book is transformative as it constructs a compelling argument of how the Wadawurrung were active agents of change and sought cultural enrichment in the midst of the frontier war on their Country. In addition to the accounts of the accommodative actions by the Wadawurrung to the newly imposed economy, spiritual beliefs and socio-political frameworks, the author has woven the colonial invaders stories of their actions and attitudes towards the Wadawurrung ranging from genocidal intent to arrangements approximating Native Title. The book therefore details not just the violent conquest of Wadawurrung lands by the squatters but also paints the fine brush strokes of the conquest stories - including their 'longing to belong'.The author, Associate Professor Dr Fred Cahir acknowledges the necessity for non-Aboriginal Australians to recognise and confront their own place and role in the history of Aboriginal-colonial invader relations.

Download or read book Ellsworth Kelly Postcards written by Ian Berry and published by Delmonico Books. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive survey of rarely seen collages from the master of abstraction Over the course of more than 50 years, renowned American artist Ellsworth Kelly made approximately 400 postcard collages, some of which served as exploratory musings and others as studies for larger works in other mediums. They range from his first monochrome in 1949 through his last postcard collages of crashing ocean waves, in 2005. Together, these works show an unbounded space of creative freedom and provide an important insight into the way Kelly saw, experienced and translated the world in his art. Many postcards illustrate specific places where he lived or visited, introducing biography and illuminating details that make these pieces unique among his broader artistic production. Ellsworth Kelly: Postcards is the most extensive publication of Kelly's lifelong practice of collaged postcards. Ellsworth Kelly (1923-2015) was born in Newburgh, New York. In 1948 he moved to France, where he came into contact with a wide range of classical and modern art. He returned to New York in 1954 and two years later had his first exhibition at the Betty Parsons Gallery. The Museum of Modern Art, New York, organized his first retrospective in 1973. Subsequent exhibitions have been held at museums around the world, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, Tate in London, Haus der Kunst in Munich and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
