Chemistry Art in South Australia, 1990-2000: The Faulding Exhibition

The theme in this book on contemporary arts and crafts relates to Australia's melting pot of native artists who never left and of those who emigrated and returned bringing new ideas from other shores. From public art, to work in experimental art institutions, the vigorous art scene will be refreshing to Western eyes. Especially interesting is Adelaide's Jam Factory, a sophisticated art and design complex for artists working in metalwork, ceramics, furniture and glass. (Art Gallery of South Australia)

Island to Empire: 300 Years of British Art 1550-1850

Ron Radford

The works produced by Australia's women artists during the 40 years from the post-World War I period to after World War 11 reflected the challenges of the times. These women explored new ideas about what art could portray, bringing home new movements like Cubism from Europe. They extended painting and printmaking and challenged other artists and Australian audiences. The works here are by Margaret Preston, Grace Cossington Smith, Dorrit Black, Grace Crowley, Stella Bowen, and 11 others, artists that are well-known by the Australian and international public as well as less exposed artists. Included are artists' biographies and bibliography. (Art Gallery of South Australia)
