2009 Course Handbook
ARTS100: Contemporary Australian Arts
An introduction to what 'contemporary Arts' mean in Australian society today: for those who produce them, for those who actively consume them, and for all those less directly involved to whom they are held up as icons of nationhood. A broad range of topics and material will be discussed, including Aboriginal art, contemporary writing about the arts, performance and drama, music and sound art, visual arts, multimedia, and the economics of the arts. The unit will aim to introduce the work of various creative artists and artistic fields, and allow students to produce creative works for assessment.
