Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1920s when Australian art was beginning to atrophy into clichéd conservative landscapes, it was saved by women, who injected vitality and a new approach to style and subject matter.Artists such as Margaret Preston, Thea Proctor, Grace Crowley, Dorrit Black and Ethel Spowers were the pioneers and promoters of modernism in Australia, exploring new ideas about what art could portray and introducing artistic developments such as Cubism. Their paintings and prints challenged other artists and certainly challenged Australian audiences.Many of these 'modern' women led adventurous and unconventional lives. They travelled and studied in Europe. Many were financially independent and did not need to conform to the requirements of a (largely male) conventional and conservative art-buying public. Most chose to remain unmarried and childless so as to devote themselves to their art.Modern Australian Women: paintings and prints 1925-1945 is a major exhibition focussing on Australia's great women artists of the modernist period. It includes important and iconic works by the well-known names of Australian art history - Margaret Preston, Grace Crowley, Grace Cossington Smith - as well as works by artists such as Clarice Beckett and Stella Bowen who have only recently begun to receive the attention they deserve.Modern Australian Women: paintings and prints 1925-1945 is an Art Gallery of South Australia Travelling Exhibition. This exhibition is supported by Marsh, the Australian Women's Weekly and Visions of Australia.

Book excerpt: It is hard for us to imagine the oppressed lives of single women in the first half of the twentieth century. Yet a few Australian women took a leap into the unknown and carved careers for themselves in Paris. They studied, painted, and haunted galleries and salons. They had a little fun too, at social gatherings or at cafes in Montparnasse. They were brave, and very determined young ladies. They exhibited in the Paris Salons and in private galleries on the Left Bank, and received prizes and awards out of all proportion to their numbers. They bought back home not only greatly enhanced skills but also Modernism, to a country that had barely heard of it. This book examines a selection of some of the best of them, including some who have been all-but forgotten. They were pioneers, role models, fine artists - and they have been neglected. Not any longer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteenth century Australia saw the development of world-class artists and art that is now receiving the international attention it deserves. The Chauncy sisters, Martha Berkeley and Theresa Walker, were the first artists to emigrate to South Australia. Martha executed miniature portrait paintings as well as landscapes and flower studies. Theresa created miniature medallions in wax and became Australia's first female sculptor, the only significant female sculptor of the period. The sisters were the first female artists of the country to make direct depictions of Aboriginals as part of their subject matter. (Art Gallery of South Australia)
