Recent ARC Discovery Grant Success
Congratulations to AASRN member Dr Michelle Antoinette and Dr Caroline Turner who have recently been awarded an ARC Discovery Grant for their project:
The Rise of New Cultural Networks in Asia in the Twenty-First Century
Asia is now a key player in world affairs economically, politically and culturally. This project analyses the rise of new cultural networks influencing Asia's dynamic regional cultural economies today. It examines cultural organisations across Asia and their networking strategies, focussing on contemporary art and art museums as key indicators of cultural change. The study includes museums, exhibitions, commercial organisations, information networks, cultural diplomacy, artist and community networks. It will document developments and enhance Australian understanding of Asian cultural industries, building Australian research on Asian cultures.
