The Antipodeans were a collective of Australian modern artists, known for their advocacy of figurative art and opposition to abstract expressionism. The group was active in the late 1950s. The group's members were Charles Blackman, Arthur Boyd, David Boyd, John Brack, Robert Dickerson, John Perceval, and Clifton Pugh

with art historian Bernard Smith who compiled The Antipodean Manifesto in 1959. They were all Melbourne-based, save Dickerson, who was from Sydney.  Despite staging only a single exhibition in Melbourne in August 1959, the Antipodeans gained international recognition.
