Defending The North: Queensland In The Pacific War (2005)
 
A UQ Art Museum touring exhibition
 
The exhibition, Defending the north: Queensland in the Pacific war, combines art and social history to look at the impact on and role played by Queensland in the Pacific war. Official war artists and artists serving in the forces and in camouflage units, who visited and depicted different parts of wartime Queensland, will be represented, alongside local Queensland artists.
 
The exhibition tells the story of Queensland’s war years: the debates about the ‘Brisbane Line’, Queensland’s role as a land base for military action further north, the social impact of an influx of American and Allied forces, and life on the home front.
