Marnie uses digital visualisation technologies for the preservation and interpretation of important cultural heritage sites\, and sculpture. She is a pioneer in the use of 3D immersive reconstructions of Southeast Asian temples and sculpture. \n  \nKerry Nguyễn-Long\nVIETNAM VISUAL ARTS\, in History\, Religion and Culture\, 2023\, The Gioi Publishers\, Hanoi\, Vietnam\nThis new book by Kerry Nguyen Long significantly revises\, updates and expands on the theme introduced in Arts of Việt Nam 1009 – 1945 published in 2013 to present new developments and archaeological finds. It explains Vietnam’s distinctive iconography and inclusive belief systems and how they manifest in the visual arts\, its syncretic and pantheistic culture and its place within the larger vibrant visual culture. \nArt historian Kerry Nguyễn-Long has lived and worked in Asia since the 1970’s. A passionate advocate of Vietnam’s visual arts\, since the introduction of the policy of đổi mới she has made frequent visits to\, as well as long sojourns in\, Vietnam to further her research. Her writings on Vietnam have appeared in books\, arts magazines\, and museum journals. She is an author\, co-author\, and a contributor to books. She is currently a contributing editor of the Hong Kong-based international magazine Arts of Asia. \n  \nNatali Pearson\nBELITUNG: The Afterlives of a Shipwreck\, 2022\, The University of Hawai’I Press\nIn 1998\, the Belitung\, a ninth-century western Indian Ocean–style vessel\, was discovered in Indonesian waters. Onboard was a full cargo load\, likely intended for the Middle Eastern market\, of over 60\,000 Chinese Tang-dynasty ceramics\, gold\, and other precious objects. It is one of the most significant shipwreck discoveries of recent times\, revealing the global scale of ancient commercial endeavours and the centrality of the ocean within the Silk Road story. But this shipwreck also has a modern tale to tell\, of how nation-states appropriate the remnants of the past for their own purposes\, and of the international debates about who owns—and is responsible for—shared heritage. \nNatali Pearson is Curriculum Coordinator at the Sydney Southeast Asia Centre\, the University of Sydney\, where she is affiliated with the School of Humanities. Her research focuses on underwater cultural heritage in Southeast Asia. She holds a PhD in Museum and Heritage Studies (2019\, USYD)\, a Masters of Museum Studies (2013\, USYD)\, a Masters of Arts in Strategy and Policy (2006\, UNSW Canberra) and a Bachelor of Arts (Asian Studies) with First Class Honours in Indonesian and History (2002\, UNSW Sydney). \nHOW TO BOOK: Please email Chris Manning at bookings@taasa.org.au by 29 May.
