SUMMARY:Immortals - Clayton Tremlett
DESCRIPTION:Discover a compelling exploration of history and memory through the eyes of Central Victorian artist Clayton Tremlett in our latest exhibition. After more than six years of dedicated research\, Tremlett presents a comparative portrait study of sixty-six First World War Digger memorials\, offering a unique opportunity to connect with the faces that have stood as silent sentinels for a century. \nTremlett’s meticulous process involved visiting\, documenting\, and researching each monument\, often capturing their likeness at sunrise to harness the purest light. His work results in powerful screen prints that mirror the iconic First World War studio portraits\, allowing you to see these memorials in a new light—both literally and figuratively. \nThe exhibition also sheds new light on August Rietman\, the most prolific Victorian sculptor of Digger statues. A pacifist of Swiss-German heritage\, Rietman’s figures are celebrated as the quintessential Aussie Digger. Tremlett’s research reveals that Rietman’s contributions to these monuments are far more significant than previously thought\, with at least fifteen statues attributed to his craftsmanship. \nImmerse yourself in this fusion of art\, history\, and research\, and witness the faces of our past brought vividly to life. \n  \n5 October 2024 – 13 April 2025

SUMMARY:Book Launch: The Secret Submarine - Dr Tom Lewis
DESCRIPTION:Uncover a forgotten battle off Australia’s shores. Join Dr Tom Lewis as he talks about his new book about a battle between Australia & Japan \n \nRelease Date: 10/Mar/2025 Subject: Military History\, WWII Pages: 440 Book Type: Paperback Dimensions: 230mm x 153mm ISBN: 9781923300064\nUncover a forgotten battle off Australia’s shores. Join Dr Tom Lewis as he reveals in his new book a battle off NSW between the Royal Australian Air Force and a Japanese submarine. \nThe official history of the Royal Australian Air Force claims that no enemy submarines operating off the Australian coast during World War II were sunk. But what if history got it wrong? \nIn a fierce and decisive air action off the coast of New South Wales\, RAAF Beaufort bombers engaged a colossal Japanese submarine over 100 meters long. What followed was a deadly duel between the submarine’s anti-aircraft guns and the bombers’ machine guns. The I-178\, with her crew of 88\, lies lost somewhere north of Sydney. The events of that day have been lost —until now. \nIn this groundbreaking work – Tom Lewis\, one of Australia’s leading military historians – rewrites the history books. ‘The Secret Submarine’ not only reveals a forgotten victory but also immerses readers in the harrowing experiences of those who served in WWII bombers and submarines. Additionally\, it chronicles the broader\, brutal struggle between Japanese forces and the combined might of the USA and Australia\, a conflict that saw over 40 ships sunk and countless lives lost off Australia’s east coast. \n  \nDr Tom Lewis OAM is a military historian & the author of 22 books. He is also a retired naval officer who served in combat; a retired secondary school teacher\, pilot\, and scuba divemaster. He was the Director of Darwin Military Museum in its redevelopment from 2009 to 2013. His Order of Australia was bestowed on him for services to naval history. He has won numerous prizes for his literary works\, the most recent being as the national winner of the 2021 Australian Naval Institute’s Commodore Sam Bateman Book Prize for Teddy Sheean VC. \nCopies of the books will be available for purchase and be signed by the author.
