In this week's episode, we'll hear from Dr Philip Jones, Senior Researcher at the South Australian Museum and curator of the exhibition, Illustrating the Antipodes: George French Angas in Australia and New Zealand, 1844-1845. In 2009, Dr Jones undertook a fellowship at the National Library of Australia, where he researched works by 19th Century artist, George French Angas. The exhibition and accompanying book are the culmination of his decades-long research into the life and work of the celebrated artist. As a young man in the 1840s, George French Angas journeyed to Australia and New Zealand, where he excelled at capturing the minute detail of plants and people, objects and landscapes. The bush was his studio and Angas personified the archetypal travelling artist of the era. Illustrating the Antipodes is supported by the National Collecting Institutions Touring and Outreach Program, an Australian Government program aiming to improve access to the national collections for all Australians. We thank the Angas family for their generosity in making works available for research and display.
