FIGURING LANDSCAPES
Ivan Dougherty Gallery
College of Fine Arts
University of New South Wales
2 - 25 April 2009
Recently shown at London's Tate Modern, Figuring Landscapes is a remarkable collection of moving image works that has grown from the political and cultural history that links Australia and the United Kingdom.
The 58 featured artists address questions of nation and identity as well as ecological survival, post-industrialism, gender, the touristic gaze, and, uniquely in Australia, the social, political and cultural status of Indigenous people in a post-colonial society.
Figuring Landscapes is accompanied by a major publication with commissioned essays by Professor Malcolm Andrews, Eu Jin Chua, Professor Catherine Elwes and Steven Ball, Dr. Stan Frankland, Dr. Eric Hursch, Professor Pat Hoffie and Dr. Danni Zuvela and Professor Ross Gibson.
