AUSTRALIA ART AND CULTURE



Every region across the world has its cultural and artistic belonging which is inculcated among the native population. You will be surprised to know that Australian culture is quite intense and does not appear to be restricted to its beer and barbeque beliefs. If you wish to acquire precise knowledge about the prime qualities of Aussie culture and art, below mentioned are some informative details that would surely enlighten you.

Cultural Traits of Australia

Australians are irreverent

As an introduction to how Australians are, you will be struck with the word ‘irreverent’. There is nothing to be surprised about since swear words are liberally stirred around at dinner table similar to tossing salt or pepper. Slagging off politicians, and even taking a dig at oneself, is something Australians are famous for. This irrelevant trait makes them unique and attractive at the same time.

Diversity of Aussie Land
To be precise, there is no single or constant national culture across Australia. This is because the nation is formed out of several cultures all thanks to the migration flow which happened after European colonization during the 18th century. Thereby, the merger of hundreds of indigenous crowds comprising of early British, Irish and European settlers followed by African and Asian communities in the past few decades has diversified the cultural richness of the region. Interestingly, a quarter section of Australians tends to have born overseas, whereas another quarter comprise of those who have at least one parent born abroad. Quite recently, edifying articles by writers at BestOnlineAssignmentHelp and ThanksForTheHelp were published which carefully decoded the cultural productivity of Australian landscape together with its assorted population.

Australians Are Democratic
One of the prime concepts for which Aussies hold high regard is associated to ‘fair go’. To be precise, it is the belief which focuses on equal opportunity for each individual, thereby exhibiting universal support for education as well as healthcare systems. It can be noticed that Australians feel pride through the preaching of the egalitarianism model, to get rid of the arrogant class system which is linked to its historic homeland.

Oldest Surviving Civilization
One should surely be aware of this fact that, the multicultural environment is associated to Australia’s First Peoples. This is the population which represents the ancient existing culture found anywhere in the world. Based on archaeological evidence, the Torres Strait Islander and Aboriginal people have colonized the continent close to 60,000 years back. At present, there are almost 650,000 Indigenous people living Australia; forming a rough population percentage of 2.8%. Rahul Tyagi, employee at OnlineAssignmentWriting, did visit the indigenous people last year and delivered a beautiful Twitter post highlighting their generosity.

Tolerant Nature of Aussies
According to studies, Australians are listed among the most unprejudiced people on this planet. This fact was proven through a test which comprised of a postal survey on marriage equality. In spite of months of repugnant public debate, almost 62% of Australians favored the legalizing of same-sex marriage. This was seen as a huge victory for a nation which feels proud of its open-minded values.

Consuming Their National Symbol
With such a lively multiculturalism, Australia doesn’t actually share one consistent cuisine. Even though the lamb roast is found to be common, but the quirkiest and popular aspect of Australian food is indeed kangaroo meat! Don’t be stunned as this dish is usually present on most menus. There are around 50 million kangaroos present in the nation, which is almost twice the overall population of humans. The national icon of Australia is termed as a common meal, which is primarily served as sausages or steak. Manish Sharma, senior writer at EssayWriter4U shared his experience on Facebook after he tasted ‘Kangaroo Bangers’. Sharma’s post mentioned he was amazed and amused at the same time with the taste and lusciousness of the meat.

Sports Obsession
Sports are something which suddenly ignites the level of seriousness in every Australian. Due to the occurrence of huge international events such as the Australian Open, Formula One Grand Prix, cricket, together to local leagues of NRL and AFL, people are more than happy to focus their interest. Furthermore, all types of water sports can be accessed across the golden coastline that makes this nation a sporting paradise.

Artistic Traits of Australia
When discussing Australian art, the primary attention does shift to Aboriginal artworks which have been the crowning gift to enhance the national heritage. You can check out several interesting Aboriginal art pieces preserved at galleries and museums spread out in different cities across Australia. Let us try to understand this art work in-depth for gaining more insight.

• Indigenous Australian culture can be termed as the longest living culture in the whole wide world. It is found to be complex and coagulated on extended survival in a hostile atmosphere. The spiritual teachings along with cultural behaviour and knowledge make it supremely rich. Hence, Sarah,the manager of PaperDoers states that the Aboriginal art comprises of both artistic as well as anthropological merit. Even the recently painted work can succeed to find a spot in a modern-age museum or art gallery.

• Aboriginal art has nurtured cultural revival that has proven positive for the Indigenous people. Since the older artists now pass on their knowledge to the younger generations, it has restored young Indigenous people to broadcast information about their culture among various population groups and tourists. Furthermore, there have been several incorporeal benefits like growing self-esteem and sense of pride towards one’s own culture. Samuel Taylor, content editor at TopAssignmentExperts, spent two days learning about Indigenous artwork and posted his moments on Instagram.

• Traditionally, almost all aboriginal paintings were scratched on rock walls. However, now you can access canvas-friendly drawings that are managed at different art galleries across Australia. It is quite amusing to know that, till date Indigenous people use body art as part of their ceremonial practices. They are heavily rooted to their culture while motivates the air of artistic beauty that surrounds them. In addition, dot painting has been an active part of aboriginal paintings which has transformed with modern art style.
