	Wikinfo \| Art of Australia
		Australia is home to perhaps the oldest continuous artistic traditions in the world - that is, those of the Aboriginal Australians, an artistic tradition that began to receive international recognition in the late 20th century.
		An art museum, which eventually became the National Gallery of Victoria, was founded in 1861, and began to collect Australian works as well as gathering a collection of European masters.
		The beginnings of Australian art are often popularly associated with the Heidelberg School in the 1880's.

	The unknown art of Australia - since European settlement UNESCO Courier - Find Articles
		The art establishment in Australia is well aware of the Eurocentric values that dominate the world of high art, and when preparing collections of Australian art for exhibition abroad it always sets out to show that Australian art is just as up-to-date as that from anywhere else in its knowledge of the latest European fashion.
		Of course good art possesses both a regional and a universal quality: regional in that it evokes the spirit of a place, a time and a people; universal in its appeal to all humankind, and in its links and associations with other cultures and other times.
		Australian art has become, during the past century, a highly important theatre of activity in which this central paradox of modernism, the connection between the regional and the universal, has been continuously enacted and contested.

	Art of Australia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The art of Australia includes one of the oldest continuous artistic traditions in the world - that is, those of the Indigenous Australians, Australian Aboriginal art in particular began to receive international recognition in the late 20th century.
		Australia has also produced notable artists coming out of Western traditions whose most distinctively Australian feature is the gradual development of ways to represent the distinctive Australian landscape.
		In 1971-2 art teacher Geoffrey Bardon encouraged the Aboriginal people of Papunya to paint their Dreamtime stories on canvas, leading to the development of the Papunya Tula school, or 'dot art' which has become possibly Australia's most recognisable style of art worldwide.

	Cross Roads - Art in Australia
		Art Schools in Australian Universities are conscious of their location - at the meeting point between South-East Asian and contemporary Western culture.
		Australia is also a multi-cultural community, reflected by art schools offering a diverse range of cultural backgrounds that both reveal and examine cross-cultural issues related to the teaching and practice of art.
		Significantly, most art schools are also relatively small in scale, and while being part of larger cosmopolitan institutions (which enables them to provide up-to-date technology and access to excellent resources), they are also small enough to provide the face-to-face contact that is an essential part of studio-based instruction.

		I knew that of all the art Australia has to offer, it was the unique art of Aboriginal Australia that had the best chance of success.
