Undertaken by Transport SA from 1996 until 2000, the Adelaide-Crafers Highway project resulted in major route reconstruction along a 10 km section of the Prince Highway. This has resulted in artist/ designer/ architect collaborations for the production of three major walls, elements of paving, bus stops and two bus shelters, a water feature and a freestanding sculptural piece. Artists and architects included in the project are George Popperwell, Greg Healey, Tony Bishop, Marijana Tadic, Neil Cranney, Mark Butcher and Rob Williams.

Unchain my Art: Myths Around Women Artists
Feature
Juliette Peers

This article notes the role of myths and preconceptions in shaping perceptions of womens art. In framing art reputations in Australia, the most disputed and uneasy component is gender. Peers looks at the 1970s feminist art movement which was important for providing the blueprint for an ongoing understanding of art as an interrogative gesture and the works of women artists such as Grace Cossington-Smith, Stella Bowen, Joy Hester, Clarice Beckett, Janine Burke, Kiffy Rubbo, Margaret Preston, Hilda Rix Nicholas, A.M.E. Bale, Margaret Olley, Meg Benwell, Judy Perrey and Anne Marie Graham.
