Abstract (English)The artists represented in this catalogue deal with issues of objectivity, reality and identity as they relate to present conditions in Australia. The sense of displacement - arising from the country's colonial cultural inheritance, its false, eurocentric aspirations and its experience as a media-saturated society - is the common theme of the work. Gibson's two-part essay analyses cultural life of an import-society in terms of conscious space and time. Biographical notes. 51 bibl. ref.
