The theme in this book on contemporary arts and crafts relates to Australia's melting pot of native artists who never left and of those who emigrated and returned bringing new ideas from other shores. From public art, to work in experimental art institutions, the vigorous art scene will be refreshing to Western eyes. Especially interesting is Adelaide's Jam Factory, a sophisticated art and design complex for artists working in metalwork, ceramics, furniture and glass.
