Betty Churcher brings her unique perspective to a series on Australian art that was inspired or provoked by our involvement in conflicts over the past century. From World War One to the 'war on terror', this series reveals how attitudes to war have dramatically changed, and how the trauma of war has radically changed art itself. With images from official war artists, soldiers on the frontlines or in POW camps, civilians in concentration camps as well as those on the home front, it is a story of unknown artists in addition to famous names such as George Lambert, Nora Heysen, Wendy Sharpe and Sidney Nolan.
