Australia’s New Arts And Cultural Policy With Jo Caust And Ben Eltham; Political Lives – Prime Ministers And Their Biographers; Acclaimed Modernist Sculptor Barbara Hepworth At The Heide
Amy speaks with Dr Ben Eltham from Monash Uni and Associate Professor Jo Caust from Melbourne Uni as they delve into the details of Australia's new arts and cultural policy, REVIVE. They talk about how these policy changes will reposition the arts in Australia and affect artists, musicians, writers, actors, and more. They analyse what sectors have benefited from the policy and what areas have been neglected.
Professor Chris Wallace returns to speak in-depth about her new book, Political Lives: Australian Prime Ministers and Their Biographers. Chris tells Australian political history anew through her account of prime ministers, their biographies and their biographers – examining their motivations and relationships.
Kendrah Morgan, Head Curator at the Heide Museum of Modern Art sits down to speak about the first survey exhibition of modernist sculptor Barbara Hepworth's (1903–1975) work in Australia. Inspired by the landscape and human form, Hepworth was one of the leading British artists of her generation and the first woman sculptor to achieve international recognition. BARBARA HEPWORTH – IN EQUILIBRIUM is showing at the Heide until March 13.
