The library has recently acquired a major Australian DVD package produced as a collaboration between Kaldor Art Projects and the New South Wales Department of Education and Training. Twelve leading Australian artists using video were commissioned for the project, and provided a version of their work for school use.
Further information on this innovative project, being distributed Australia-wide this year, is available on the Kaldor Art Projects and NSW Department websites.
Added to Curriculum Resources as twelve individual items, making them easier to borrow and use, the DVDs all include useful accompanying notes. Artists featured are: Daniel Crooks, Shaun Gladwell, The Kingpins, Todd McMillan, Jess MacNeil, Tracey Moffatt, TV Moore, Patricia Piccinini, David Rosetzky, Grant Stevens, John Tonkin, and Daniel von Sturmer.
The material is aimed at secondary schools, and the latest news from Kaldor is that work is underway on a similar package for primary schools.
