The Australian official war art program commissioned 35 artists, of whom
three were women. At first relatively conservative artists were chosen.
However, towards the end of the war more modernist artists were being
appointed. Soldier artists - including some prisoners of war - and
civilians were among these. They covered all services and the struggle
on the home front.
