澳大利亚画家伊丽莎•高斯(Eliza Gosse)从澳大利亚和美国为战后欧洲移民建造的住宅项目中汲取灵感，创作了“布朗使命”(Mission Brown):表现郊区现代主义的油画。
在人口激增的时期，两国都制定了住房解决方案，这些方案象征着两国不断演变的文化特征。第二次世界大战后，郊区住宅的必要性要求建筑师将注意力转向国内，因此这个时代产生了一些更具创造性、更廉价的现代主义设计，我们在高斯的画作中看到了这些设计。戈斯解释说:“通过回顾过去，在这两个国家对这些房屋进行粉刷，我想消除今天那种冷漠、不讨人喜欢的郊区刻板印象，让我们的思绪回到年轻一代建筑师和欧洲移民身上，他们给郊区带来了一种创新精神。”
Drawing inspiration from project homes built for post-war European migrants in the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s in Australia and America, Australian painter Eliza Gosse has created ‘Mission Brown’: oil paintings of suburban modernism.
At a time marked by surges in population, both countries developed housing solutions that were emblematic of their evolving cultural identities. The necessity of suburban housing after the Second World War required architects turn their attention to domestic sites, and so this era is responsible for some of the more inventive and inexpensive modernist designs that we see in Gosse’s paintings. “By looking backwards and painting these homes across the two countries I want to undo the impersonal, unflattering suburban stereotype of today”, Gosse explains, “and cast our minds back to a generation of young architects and European migrants that breathed a spirit of invention into the suburbs.”
