Exhibition catalog; showcases numerous contemporary Australian artists working today. "As a theme, the notion of optimism seemed to reflect a burgeoning movement within the national art scene, one that is earmarked by a renewed confidence in the potential for art and artists to be active participants in contemporary society. This exhibition seeks to embrace and encourage such convictions while celebrating the passion, irreverence and humour of contemporary Australian culture. It also explores the optimism inherent in the artist's drive to creat, and the belief in artistic expression as an agency of change."
