Pioneers of Modernism: The Arts and Crafts Movement in Australia
ISBN: 9780522851786 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The influence of the arts-and-crafts movement in Australia has long been lost between the far better known Gothic and classical revivals and the modernist movement, and obscured by the chronological construction of "federation" architecture, but this study, along with the accompanying photographs and plans, brings to life the simple lines of their design and...

ISBN: 9781742230078 / Angielski / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

A gripping narrative work,...

As the international art market globalizes the indigenous image, it changes its identity, status, value, and purpose in local and larger contexts. Focusing on a school of Australian Aboriginal painting that has become popular in the contemporary art world, Robyn Ferrell traces the influence of cultural exchanges on art, the self, and attitudes toward the other. Aboriginal acrylic painting, produced by indigenous women artists of the Australian Desert, bears a superficial resemblance to abstract expressionism and is often read as such by viewers. Yet to see this art only through a Western...
