Australia Trips, 1994 - 1996, 1997 - 1999
Scope and Contents
A box containing two sub-files, which hold material connected to two trips made by Roger Law to Australia. The first sub-file relates to Law's attendance and participation at the IDEAS Student Design Conference, held in Melbourne in April 1995. There is also post-conference material, including letters of gratitude.
The second sub-file concerns Roger Law's and Deirdre Amsden's tour of the country, between September and November 1996. There were multiple reasons for this trip: a vacation; to explore the possibility of Law obtaining an artist in residency position at a university, in collaboration with the organisation, International Specialised Skills (ISS); and for Law to attend and participate in a conference held by The Australian Black and White Artists' Club. While in the country, Law also held meetings with television executives and other individuals. The contents of this sub-file also includes correspondence from staff at Spitting Image Productions Limited, concerning work matters, while Law was in Australia. Also present in this second sub-file are a number of items from 1997, relating to the termination of Rebecca Hossack's post as Cultural Development Officer, at Australia House, London; and some documents from ISS, dated 1999.
Material within these sub-files include, but are not limited to: contact lists, correspondence, ephemera, event schedules, travel documentation, and a proposal for a puppet making university course.
