Art + Australia is Australia's longest running art magazine, with its precursor Art in Australia established in 1916. Art + Australia is a publishing and research body that focuses on contemporary art and its relationship to broader theoretical, social and geo-political contexts. Based at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA), University of Melbourne, and living intimately with the vibrant pulse of its art school host, Art + Australia presents a rigorous and uncompromising perspective on what might constitute both art and Australia in the twenty first century. The print journals are themed publications encompassing explorations of contemporary and historical art and have thus far included: Recomposite, Extraterritoriality & The Plague. For each edition of the journal A+A has commissioned some of Australia's most highly regarded arts writers, artists, critics and theorists. From the artistic and written contributions, to the layout and design, A+A journals are committed to experimental explorations of the discursive conversations that contribute to Australian culture and broader contexts. Miracles are commonly described as extraordinary events, violating the laws of nature: wondrous and usually beneficial or at least acceptable, sometimes providential as supernatural gifts. Wondrous things are marvels: rare, thus usually precious and eminently collectable they can be classified and displayed in cabinets and museums. Not so miracles. The miracle remains strange, no matter how marvellous it might be; it is unexpected, improbable and most importantly it is outside natural law. An outlaw. If the miracle is a natural improbability, think of it as an exception. Holy or unholy, it is an unaccountable and singular event. A breach in the dimensions of the real.
