Book Our Country

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ron Radford
  • Publisher : South Australia State Government Publications
  • Release : 2001
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 184 pages

Download or read book Our Country written by Ron Radford and published by South Australia State Government Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated book celebrates Australia's unification from regional provinces to a federation. Filled with a sense of their time in history, Australia's great painters have been compared with America's Hudson River artists who expressed a similar awe about their surroundings and whose pictures gave its people a feeling of nationhood. Different in mood and scale from the earlier Heidelberg paintings, perhaps the best known of the Australian art movements, the sweeping Federation landscapes defined Australianness. The images contain natural components unique to the world's largest island -- giant eucalyptuses, expansive oceans and beaches, grand rivers, rugged mountain ranges -- and the luminous light of Australia which bathes the land.

Book Australian Impressionism

Download or read book Australian Impressionism written by Terence Lane and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia's distinctive landscape and sunny climate gave Australian Impressionism an intensity and radiance remarkable even in the international setting as the genre swept through the world's art communities during the second half of the 19th century. This book focuses on the first 15 years of the movement and follows five artists step-by-step. The story told in the Spring 2007 exhibition and in this catalog focuses on Charles Conder, Fred McCubbin, Tom Roberts, Arthur Streeton, and Jane Sutherland. The material includes several thematic subjects, such as portraiture by Roberts and Streeton, and European symbolism. The art sometimes is anecdotal and contains a narrative. Australian plein air painters were interested in the way light evoked a particular emotion or mood and how to capture a fleeting moment within a short amount of time. These young artists saw themselves as leaders against the forces of conservatism and parochialism and stayed current with what was happening on the world stage. In response to a scathing review of their first exhibition, they wrote to the critic that they were 'working towards the development... of a great school of painting in Australia.' Among many lasting contributions of these painters, Jane Sutherland advanced the professional standing of women artists of her time.

Book Tourism Art and Souvenirs

Download or read book Tourism Art and Souvenirs written by David Hume and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the relationship between art and tourism through the study of the material culture of tourism: tourist art and souvenirs. It thoroughly examines how to categorise the material culture of tourism within the discourses of contemporary art and cultural anthropology, and demonstrates that tourist art is a unique expression of place and genuine artistic style. The first investigation to consider the activity of souvenirs from both indigenous and settler tourist sites, it brings a unique addition to the existing, dated, research in the area. Working initially from Graburn’s definition of tourist art, as the art of one culture made specifically for the consumption of another, Tourism Art and Souvenirs sheds light on important aspects of the souvenir that have not been widely discussed. The most recent research is used to consider how the souvenir is designed and consumed, consumer expectations and influence on the character of the souvenir, how the souvenir maker is consumed by the tradition of heritage and how products become successful as souvenirs. The title also investigates the language involved in the representation of place and the recording of experience through the souvenir, developing a method that expresses the descriptive data of individual souvenir artefacts graphically so the patterns of language may be analysed. Enhancing the understanding of material culture in tourism and therefore adding to future tourism development this volume will be of interest to upper level students, researchers and academics in tourism, culture, heritage and sustainability.
