Visual Ephemera: Theatrical Art in Nineteenth Century Australia

Abstract

Not strictly an art history, this is as much a history of performance and spectacle as of orthodox painting. The book traces the development in Australia of an entirely different cultural system, an eclectic,carnivalesque system in which non-traditional art forms were capable of disseminating the same cultural ideas as High Art.
