Hello
I thought you might be interested in one of our new titles, 'Memory Fragments: Visualising Difference in Australian History', an innovative, interdisciplinary look at four prominent, contemporary visual artists. This title examines how these artists utilise the conventions of museum display and collecting practice in order to reconfigure dominant representations of history and identity.
In contemporary times waste, and recycling practices, have become key sites through which artists and theorists seek to intervene in the changing conditions of cultural memory. This book is a rumination on ideas of history and time, including those of philosopher Walter Benjamin, and also a fascinating look at four unique and talented artists.
