Lively, up beat and irreverent, New Australiana
explores the popular culture of contemporary
Australia, one hundred years after federation. Many
of the icons of mass market 'Australiana' remain
locked into a mid-twentieth century mythology: the
swagman and the surf lifesaver; the Hills Hoist and
the Holden; the barbecue and the battler. Drawing
on work by documentary photographers from across
the country, this exhibition brings us up to date,
reflecting shifting mores and the sheer energy we
Australians put into having a good time.
