'The author relates the highlights of Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's delivery of apology to Indigenous peoples at the Parliament House. She says that as the prime minister read the apology, sadness and regret had surrounded them while some people sobbed quietly. After the speech, several political leaders approached the members of the Stolen Generations. A photo essay which documents the event is presented.' (Publication abstract)

    'Cultural expression is a major topic of research interest for AIATSIS and has been since its inception. Research of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander visual arts are, in turn, a significant component of that work. This volume consolidates the work of several AIATSIS research grantees, staff and visitors who are working on projects that explore different aspects of Indigenous art production and how this production relates to the creation of personal and group identity. Some of the projects were presented at an AIATSIS seminar series held in the second semester of 2006 and organised by Luke Taylor and Peter Veth with the support of Patrick Sullivan.' (Editorial introduction)
