Abstract

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.

Abstract

For architect and educator Leon van Schaik, the way we understand our world is not an abstract consideration, but deeply rooted in physical experience. Our family houses and places of work, the gardens we have played and rested in, the landscapes we have travelled through and those we have come to call home-all of these inflect what van Schaik describes as our spatial intelligence. For better or worse, this understanding informs our interpretation of the world, and any attempts we might make to reshape it. In Doing, Seeing; Seeing, Doing, van Schaik unearths a lineage of landscape and garden ideas that have influenced his thinking over many decades spent practicing and teaching architecture. Partly auto-biographical, partly essayistic, the book unfolds as a series of journeys with friends and colleagues through their shared histories in architecture, landscape and gardening. From Persian paradise gardens to the mosaic burning that maintained pre-colonial Australia's 'parkland' landscape, the nested arches of Edwin Lutyens to Renaissance axiality, Doing, Seeing; Seeing, Doing explores how every line drawn in our world brings a system along with it. It also demonstrates why an awareness of our own spatial histories is crucial if we are to avoid visiting those systems onto others, unexamined.

Abstract

August 2020 marked the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of Ex Corde Ecclesiae, Pope John Paul II's Apostolic Constitution on Catholic Universities. To celebrate the anniversary, the office of the Vice President of Australian Catholic University and its Canon Law Centre planned to host a symposium with the participation of scholars and experts from around the world. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic meant that the symposium could not be held. Included in this volume are the papers that a number of the presenters had planned to give. Their reflections on crucial points of Ex Corde Ecclesiae will be helpful for those charged with the direction of Catholic tertiary institutions, and for all who teach and work in them, as they consider the mission and identity of their institutions going forward.

Abstract

In the early 1970s, Geoffrey Searle presented a series of groundbreaking lectures on Australian cultural history. These lectures became the book From Deserts the Prophets Come, first published in 1973. Searle relates in his preface to the original edition, ""I was aiming to cut a new path for teaching and research in Australian history, to bring cultural history into the general discourse of Australian historians, and to bridge the gap between general history and the major works in literary, art, musical, and architectural history which have appeared in recent years."" Searle's articulation of

Abstract

South in the World is a dialogue between the earthly and the ethereal, reality and enchantment, body and spirit - those southern and northern poles by which we navigate the world. The poems in this collection speak to family, love, and daily living, as well as a world blighted by cataclysm and touched by redemption. Lisa Jacobson is an award-winning poet and fiction writer. Poems in this book have either won or have been shortlisted for major awards: the 2011 Bruce Dawe National Poetry Prize, the 2013 Montreal International Poetry Prize, and the 2013 Fish International Poetry Prize (U.K.).

Abstract

The story of Australian art does not begin and end with landscape. This book puts flowers front and centre, because they have often been ignored in preference for more masculine themes.Departing from where studies of single flower artists leave off, Useless Beauty embraces the general topic of flowers in Australian art and shines new light on a slice of Australian art history that extends from 1880 to 1950. It is the first book of broad chronology to discuss Australian art through blossoms, which it does by addressing stories of major figures including Hans Heysen, Margaret Preston and Sidney
