A History of Aboriginal Art in the Art Gallery of New South Wales

A History of Aboriginal Art in the Art Gallery of New South Wales

In this highly original study Vanessa Russ examines the gradual invention of Aboriginal art within the Art Gallery of New South Wales. This process occurred as the social histories of Australia expanded and recognised Aboriginal people through wars and political shifts and as international organisations began placing pressure on nation states to expand diversify and respect multicultural perspectives. This book explores a state art institution as a case study to consider these complex narratives through a single history of Aboriginal art from early colonisation until today. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history museum studies and Indigenous studies. | A History of Aboriginal Art in the Art Gallery of New South Wales

Curating as Feminist Organizing

Curating as Feminist Organizing

What makes curating feminist organizing? How do curators relate to contemporary feminist concerns in their local conditions and the globalized artworld? The book brings together twenty curatorial case studies from diverse regions of the globe. Reflecting their own curatorial projects or analyzing feminist-inspired exhibitions the authors in this book elaborate feminist curating as that which is inspired to challenge gender politics not only within but also beyond the doors of the museum and gallery. Connecting their wider feminist politics to their curatorial practices the book provides case studies of curatorial practice that address the legacies of racialized and ethnic violence including colonialism; which seek to challenges the state's regulation of citizenship and sexuality; and which realize the drive for economic justice in the organizations and roles in which curators work. The settings in which this work is done range from university art galleries to artist-run spaces and educational or activist programmes. This collection will be enjoyed by those studying and researching curating exhibitions socially and ecologically engaged contemporary art practices and feminist transnational movements in diverse geographic contexts. The essays are of relevance to practicing curators critical cultural practitioners and artists. | Curating as Feminist Organizing

Museum Exhibitions and Suspense The Use of Screenwriting Techniques in Curatorial Practice

Museum Exhibitions and Suspense The Use of Screenwriting Techniques in Curatorial Practice

Museum Exhibitions and Suspense takes insights from screenwriting to revolutionise our understanding of exhibition curating. Despite all genuine efforts to reach broader audiences museums persistently fear riskingtheir credibility by becoming ‘too popular’. Thus the enormous potential to learn from other storytelling forms more experienced in the field of entertainment remains essentially unexploited. Museum Exhibitions and Suspense unlocks this creative potential. A comparative in-depth analysis of three classical Hollywood films and three cultural historical exhibitions demonstrates how dramatic suspense techniques can be applied to exhibitions. These techniques must be adapted to the typical epic character of the exhibition medium. By differentiating between mild and wild suspense the book provides a new understanding of the nature of suspense itself. Museum Exhibitions and Suspense addresses academics and students in the fields of museum studies gallery studies and heritage studies interested in how exhibitions function and in how to achieve dramaturgical effects like suspense. It also appeals to scholars and students within film studies who want to gain a deeper understanding of suspense. It provides an important resource for curators and other museum practitioners and scriptwriters who intend to create stories with a wide audience appeal. | Museum Exhibitions and Suspense The Use of Screenwriting Techniques in Curatorial Practice

Essential Oils as Antimicrobial Agents in Food Preservation

Essential Oils as Antimicrobial Agents in Food Preservation

Perishable products such as fruits and vegetables account for the largest proportion of food loss due to their short shelf life especially in the absence of proper storage facilities which requires sustainable universal and convenient preservation technology. The existing methods to prolong the shelf life of food mainly include adding preservatives irradiation cold storage heat treatment and controlled atmosphere storage. But with disadvantages in irradiation cold storage heat treatment and controlled atmosphere storage chemical synthetic preservatives are still the main means to control food corruption. As the food industry responds to the increasing consumer demand for green safe and sustainable products it is reformulating new products to replace chemical synthetic food additives. Essential Oils as Antimicrobial Agents in Food Preservation provides a comprehensive introduction to the antimicrobial activity of plant essential oils and their application strategies in food preservation. It is aimed at food microbiology experts food preservation experts food safety experts food technicians and students. Features: Summarizes the application strategy and safety of essential oil in the field of food preservation Describes the synergistic antibacterial effect of essential oil and antimicrobial agents Explains the action mechanism of essential oil as antimicrobial agent against foodborne fungi foodborne bacteria viruses and insects Analyzes the antimicrobial activity of essential oil in gas phase The book discusses how as a natural antimicrobial and antioxidant essential oil has great potential to be used in the food industry to combat the growth of foodborne pathogens and spoilage microorganisms. But because the essential oil itself has obvious smell and is sensitive to light and heat it cannot be directly added to the food matrix and thus the application strategies presented in this book explain how to alleviate those issues.

Postharvest Nanotechnology for Fresh Horticultural Produce Innovations and Applications

Postharvest Nanotechnology for Fresh Horticultural Produce Innovations and Applications

Food scarcity and insecurity is an alarming issue throughout the world. Postharvest loss due to both mechanical damage and microbial spoilage significantly influences the shelf life and hence the availability of agricultural produce. Once initiated the microbial spoilage can make bulk quantity of a given agricultural product unacceptable for human consumption and several methods have already been used to try to manage this. Considering the limited success of the available methods there is increasing interest in exploring nanotechnological methods. These methods are being considered for both the development of various platforms for antimicrobial/barrier packaging applications that minimize the contact of agricultural produce with the external environment and also for design sensors to ensure food safety and quality. The impact of various nano-systems developed through material engineering on the shelf-life enhancement and storage of fresh horticultural produce will have revolutionary effects on post-harvest management in the coming years.

Entrepreneurship Polycentrism and Elites Local Industrial Development in Modern Italy

Entrepreneurship Polycentrism and Elites Local Industrial Development in Modern Italy

The book is a cross-section of the over all Italian development. Italy can be considered a microcosm that contains all the imbalances and territorial differences that can be observed in the European macro-areas. Its north can now be considred integrated with the more developed European continental shelf. The Centre represents a local development in transition to a more visible technological change. The late south risks accumulating more socio-economic backwardness. For these reasons we believe this volume is useful with just a few pages presenting one of the most interesting cases of local industrial development outside the mainstream of the industrial economy which saw in Fordism and Taylorism the best way for industrializaion. Here on the contrary it is argued that big fish cannot always consume the smallest one that flickers faster and its flexibility that has social roots can be an advantage in global markets. Technology appears to be the key to the future. Please note: This title is co-published with Aakar Books New Delhi.
