Trolling for Sharks: Adventures of a Teacher in a Remote Aboriginal Community
AU$20.00 Read MoreAdd to cartTrev Brown
Gold Coast: Keeaira Press, 2005.“This collection of short stories tell of Trev Brown’s time as a teacher at the Angurugu School on Groote Eylandt in the Gulf of Carpentaria. Being a manual arts teacher Trev put his practical skills to good use. Even if you are not interested in things mechanical it is impossible to put the book down until you find out what happens to the outboard engine that he finds at the bottom of a river and struggles to get going. He tells of rebuilding boats and cars, modifications to his house, rivets falling from airplanes, Friday nights at the Bartalumba Bay Fishermen’s Club and water-skiing in shark and crocodile-infested waters. Even the time he spent in the classroom had its share of excitement. Like the time an upset student arrived at school with his father’s spears and a few ended up through the school doors. Another time parents had to scare off crocodiles and sharks from the nearby river so a swimming carnival could be held, as the residents of the nearby mining town did not want Aborigines using the local swimming pool. Trevs skillful writing keeps the reader amused as you discover how exciting a schoolteacher’s life can be.” (publisher’s blurb)

Ey! Iran: Contemporary Iranian Photography
AU$15.00 Read MoreAdd to cartMandana Mapar; Htamid Severi
Gold Coast: Gold Coast City Art Gallery, 2006.“In Ey! Iran, social realities of hope, temptation, nostalgia and introspection are captured through the Persian lens. The exhibition depicts a culture surprisingly familiar to ours – narratives of family life, suburban sprawl and poignant observations on a country immersed in longstanding customs and traditions. The artists take on issues of identity, gender and social restrictions and by doing so capture a side of Iran which is often contrary to that presented by the Pentagon and the western media. Catalogue of exhibition held at the Gold Coast City Art Gallery in 2006. Artists include; Dadbeh Bassir, Shadi Ghadirian, Amirali Ghasemi, Mohammad Ghazali, Arash Hanaei, Ghazale Hedayat, Peyman Houshmandzadeh, Bahman Jalali, Hana Mirjanian, Reza Paydari, Leila Pazooki, Sadegh Tirafkan, Hamila Vakili, Hossein & Angela Valamanesh and Mohsen Yazdipour.”
