About this work

After training as an art teacher, Ann Newmarch became a lecturer at the South Australian School of Art in 1969. In 1975 she learnt the technique of photo-screenprinting, which coincided with the development of poster collectives around Australia. Newmarch was a founder and active participant of the Women’s Art Movement, established in Adelaide in 1976. She often combined images with texts advocating for women’s liberation and challenging the expectations around women’s roles in society.
