    In his groundbreaking work The Search for Order 1877-1920‚ Robert Wiebe seeks to prove that the drastic changes seen in America at the turn of the century were not disconnected singular events. Instead there was a singular “deep-flowing current‚ which gave unity and meaning to the period as a whole” (VII).

    Australian Contemporary pieces like Tom Roberts Shearing the Ram and John Brack’s Collins Street 5pm correlate in how they are constrained by cultural themes such as time and place. Art and culture are not black and white concepts; there is no way to say that one affects the other completely. Yet it is necessary to point out that time and place are intangible concepts
