   Extractions: The hidden story of Australia's missing links "Probably the most unusual country in the world. Australia has countless unwritten rules that are never spoken about or discussed. " Robert Treborlang Welcome to Australia! This is a peculiar country where the principles of culture appear to have been turned upside down. Australians seem blissfully unaware of the achievements of their academics.... yet they will celebrate long dead horses and bushrangers. They are forgetful to the words of their national anthem..... yet it would be wrong to say they are not patriotic as a song about a suicidal sheep thief seems to instil them with a great deal of pride! If they like you, they will not give you compliments. Instead, they will call you names like bastard, drongo or dickhead and then laugh at all the silly things you have done! If you have red hair, you might be called ' Bluey' . If you are tall, you might be called ' Shorty. ' If you are quiet, you might be called ' Rowdy Perhaps these traits can be understood by looking at the country's modern history. For its first 70 years, Australia was a prison for British Convicts! These Convicts became the first urban Australians and subsequently laid the country's economic and cultural foundations.

    Extractions: You can read the descriptive text which follows, or jump direct from the links in the table. We Australians understand the mainstream cultures of Britain and the USA, because our television is flooded with culturally-soaked material. But aside from lowest-common-denominator stuff like soapies, few foreigners realise that we have our own culture, our own cultural references, and our own assumptions. This set of pages will explore some of those aspects. We have to begin somewhere, so we will start with the Australian folk food, "Vegemite" Next, we will explore the world of the young Australian surfers, the Nippers Then there are the bushfires . They are a natural part of summer life in Australia, so sooner or later, you will read and hear about them. This offering features some JPEG files of fires and fire damage, and an account of the January 1994 fires that ravaged Sydney. One of my favourite activities is wandering around in the bush my excuse is that I am looking for aboriginal rock engravings which are common on the Sydney sandstone. You will find some information about them here, and also a number of illustrations, most of which are also available in a larger format by clicking on them.

    http://www.dfat.gov.au/facts/culture_arts.html
    
    Extractions: Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Skip to content Today is St Kitts and Nevis Independence Day Australia's contemporary arts are as unique and diverse as the society and continent they come from. They reflect an ancient landscape that is home to the world's oldest continuous cultural traditions and also to a rich mix of migrant cultures. Since the early 1970s, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists have developed new modes of expression that have brought their art and culture to international attention. The transfer of Dreaming designs from sand paintings to boards and canvases by Pintupi elders in the central desert community of Papunya in 1971 was just one of many artistic initiatives that have created powerful new connections between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Acclaimed artists such as Rover Thomas, Emily Kngwarreye and Ken Thaiday have also created contemporary art that remains grounded in the spiritual traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
