https://www.parliament.vic.gov.au/council/petitions/electronic-petitions/view-e-petitions/details/12/114 The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Council that cultural visitors to Victoria in 2017 injected almost $2 billion into our economy, an 88 per cent increase since 2013.

After six years of study for basic qualifications, 60 per cent of professional artists earn less than $10,000 per year from creative work and 42 per cent commit to four more years for higher qualifications and earn the same.

CFP: ‘Belonging and Detachment’ the 19th Conference of Association RIdIM – Hobart, Tasmania – 13-15 November 2019
CALL FOR PAPERS Belonging and Detachment: Representing Musical Identity in Visual Culture The 19th Conference of Association RIdIM Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 13-15 November 2019 Musicians and artists rarely operate in complete isolation.

The primary concern of the conference is how such experiences impact upon the representation of musical identity in visual culture. The […]

Professor Jonathan Bloom – 2019 Miegunyah Distinguished Visiting Fellowship Lecture – 6.30pm, 14th of March 2019
A History of Paper as a Transformative Medium: from Ancient China to Contemporary Australia Professor Jonathan Bloom – Norma Jean Calderwood Professor, Islamic and Asian Art, emeritus, Boston College and the Hamad Bin Khalifa Endowed Chair in Islamic Art, Virginia Commonwealth University.

Killing Today. Killing Yesterday: A Genealogy of Corpse Magic – Michael Taussig – 5.30pm, 28 Feb. 2019
The Centre of Visual Art (CoVA) and the Research Unit in Public Cultures (RUPC) are delighted to host an upcoming public lecture by Professor Michael Taussig from Columbia University, City of New York. Professor Su Baker will introduce this lecture.
