This comprehensive survey uniquely covers both Aboriginal art and that of European Australians, providing a revealing examination of the interaction between the two. Painting, bark art, photography, rock art, sculpture, and the decorative arts are all fully explored to present the rich texture of Australian art traditions. Well-known artists such as Margaret Preston, Rover Thomas, and Sidney Nolan are all discussed, as are the natural history illustrators, Aboriginal draughtsmen, and pastellists, whose work is only now being brought to light by new research. Taking the European colonization of the continent in 1788 as his starting point, Sayers highlights important issues concerning colonial art and women artists in this fascinating new story of Australian art.

This volume collates transcripts from the landmark NGV seminar series Observations: Women in Art and Design History, which took place online during 2022 and examines the historical, often forgotten contributions of women to the fields of art and design from 1500-1970. Named after English artist Mary Beale’s 1633 text Observations by MB, written in 1633 and widely recognised as the first manuscript on painting written by a woman artist, Observations features the insights of historians, writers and curators from around the world.
