Artists’ Moving Image From Australia & UK
Landscape is a vital theme through which artists have tackled issues of representation, nation and identity. FIGURING LANDSCAPES is a remarkable collection of moving image works from Australia and the UK that has grown from the background of the political and cultural history that links the two countries and the close relationship that continues between them. The individual pieces in FIGURING LANDSCAPES address ecological survival, post-industrialism, gender, the touristic gaze, and the social, political and cultural status of indigenous people in a post-colonial modern society.
The programme 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 Hirsch, Professor Pat Hoffie and Dr. Danni Zuvela and Professor Ross Gibson.
Copies available priced £7.00 from CINECITY.
