1 y separately published work icon Graphic Storytellers at Work Pat Grant , Gabriel Clark , Elizabeth MacFarlane , Ronnie Scott , Belconnen : Australia Council for the Arts , 2021 27121385 2021 multi chapter work criticism

'Graphic storytellers make complex ideas easy to understand. Their technical and interpretive skills help to illustrate abstract concepts and transcend language barriers. So, we’ve commissioned Graphic Storytellers at Work: Cross-industry opportunities for cartoonists, illustrators and comics-makers, a new report which explores how the skills of cartoonists, illustrators and comics-makers are being applied. This happens across a diverse range of industries such as health and education.

'Artists surveyed described using their skills to communicate important health information to culturally diverse communities, translate complex legal documents, or create tools and resources for psychologists and surgeons.

'The report provides a fascinating portrait of the professional lives of Australia’s cartoonists, illustrators and comic-makers and highlights the huge potential for the cross-industry application of their skills. It was led by comics-makers and comics researchers Dr. Pat Grant (Lecturer, School of Design, UTS) and Mr. Gabriel Clark (Lecturer, School of Design, UTS), along with Dr. Elizabeth MacFarlane (University of Melbourne) and Dr. Ronnie Scott (RMIT University). All four are active within the Australian graphic storytelling community and are based in either Melbourne or Sydney.'

The writers gathered bring to the fore evocative snippets from the many different nations of Indigenous Australia; the themes range from the personal to the political – the big and the small picture leap off the page.'

1 1 y separately published work icon A Case for Literature: The Effectiveness of Subsidies to Australian Publishers, 1995-2005 Kath McLean , Louise Poland , Sydney : Australia Council for the Arts , 2010 Z1748021 2010 single work criticism This report presents the findings of a research project that examined the effectiveness, both critical and financial, of Literature Board subsidies to Australian publishers over the ten years 1995-2005. Individual interviews were conducted with eighteen prominent publishers and commissioning editors who were active in the period in Australian-based publishing companies. Detailed case studies were prepared of sixteen books that were assisted into publication by publishing subsidies. The case studies include titles in all literary genres - fiction, poetry, short fiction, non-fiction (including life writing and the essay) and the literary anthology. Some were significant as prizewinners, some as bestsellers; some were socially or culturally significant. The report offers a number of recommendations arising from the research.

It's by no means a definitive portrait because it represents those artists and companies who at the time of publication have works available for touring. Nonetheless, most of the key players are included and the guide is indicative of an astonishing variety of artistic visions, forms and touring experience." --Verso of t.p.
