Composed of six separate but related suites of photographs, Brief Shining Moment focuses on some of the key players and episodes from the highly charged “Whitlam era” of Australian politics. In the series, A Kind of Love, Milne presents the tale of Jim Cairns, the then Treasurer and former Moratorium hero who was accused of having an affair with his exotic assistant Juni Morosi. The seductive colour images in this series borrow from television soap opera as they re-tell the turbulent story that was histrionically played out in the Australian media at the time. In Make Straight the Way, he restages actual photographs from the Flinders University's &‘Dunstan Collection' (bequeathed by former South Australian Premier Don Dunstan). The images capture glimpses from a very flamboyant life, lived in the full glare of the &‘Photo Opportunity'. Other series include the stories of the tragi-comic Governor General, Sir John Kerr and the two media moguls - Packer and Murdoch, who played an integral role in the myth-making and breaking during this extraordinary period in our (recent) history.
