  • Australia's National Heritage
    High Court–National Gallery Precinct AUSTRALI A N C A PI TA L T E R R ITORY The High Court–National Gallery Precinct is significant as a group of public buildings and landscape conceived as a single entity. The complex is stylistically integrated in terms of architectural forms and finishes, and as an ensemble of freestanding buildings in a cohesive landscape setting. The Precinct occupies a 16-hectare site in the north-east corner of the Parliamentary Zone. It includes the High Court, National Gallery of Australia and the Gallery’s Sculpture Garden. The landscape brief from the National Capital National Gallery of Australia Development Commission required that the High Court, National Gallery and surrounding landscape become a chambers.

  • The Garden of Australian Dreams: the Moral Rights of Landscape Architects
    EDWARD ELGAR THE GARDEN OF AUSTRALIAN DREAMS: THE MORAL RIGHTS OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS DR MATTHEW RIMMER SENIOR LECTURER ACIPA, FACULTY OF LAW, THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY ACIPA, Faculty Of Law, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT, 0200 Work Telephone Number: (02) 61254164 E-Mail Address: [email protected] THE GARDEN OF AUSTRALIAN DREAMS: THE MORAL RIGHTS OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS DR MATTHEW RIMMER* * Matthew Rimmer, BA (Hons)/ LLB (Hons) (ANU), PhD (UNSW), is a Senior Lecturer at ACIPA, the Faculty of Law, the Australian National University. The author is grateful for the comments of Associate Professor Richard Weller, Tatum Hands, Dr Kathy Bowrey, Dr Fiona Macmillan and Kimberlee Weatherall. He is also thankful for the research assistance of Katrina Gunn. 1 Prominent projects such as National Museums are expected to be popular spectacles, educational narratives, tourist attractions, academic texts and crystallisations of contemporary design discourse. Something for everyone, they are also self-consciously set down for posterity and must at some level engage with the aesthetic and ideological risks of national edification. Richard Weller, designer of the Garden of Australian Dreams1 Introduction This article considers the moral rights controversy over plans to redesign the landscape architecture of the National Museum of Australia. The Garden of Australian Dreams is a landscaped concrete courtyard.2 The surface offers a map of Australia with interwoven layers of information. It alludes to such concepts as the Mercator Grid, parts of Horton’s Map of the linguistic boundaries of Indigenous Australia, the Dingo Fence, the 'Pope’s Line', explorers’ tracks, a fibreglass pool representing a suburban swimming pool, a map of Gallipoli, graphics common to roads, and signatures or imprinted names of historical identities.3 There are encoded references to the artistic works of iconic Australian painters such as Jeffrey Smart, Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd, and Gordon Bennett.

    Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture RSTCA No: R084 Name of Place: National Gallery of Australia Other/Former Names: Australian National Gallery Address/Location: Parkes Place PARKES 2600 Block B1.5 Section 29 of Parkes Listing Status: Registered Other Heritage Listings: Date of Listing: June 1993 Level of Significance: National Citation Revision No: Category: Educational Citation Revision Date: February 1993 Style: Late Twentieth Century Brutalist Date of Design: 1968-1972 Designer: Colin Madigan of Edwards, Madigan, Torzillo & Briggs Construction Period: 1973-1982 Client/Owner/Lessee: Commonwealth of Australia Date of Additions: Builder: Statement of Significance The National Gallery of Australia is one of the most forthright examples of Australian civic architecture of the 1970's. It is an important and prominent Australian example of Brutalist Architecture, and is the most decisive statement of the Brutalist philosophy as realised by Colin Madigan. It is a finely executed building reflecting great care and attention at all levels of detail throughout. His craft-based attitude to concrete construction is demonstrated in the quality finishes of the building. Madigan, working together with the landscape architect Harry Howard, has provided an outstanding landscape in which the building is sited with the sculpture garden on the lake side of the Gallery continuing the varied, spatial progression established within the building. It is difficult to describe the significance of the National Gallery and not mention the adjacent High Court building designed by the same firm in a similar style. The off form concrete masses, linking pedestrian bridge and strong, vertical elements at the entry of both the Gallery and High Court visually connect the two buildings.

He won acclaim for his design of the Cable Beach Club resort in Broome in the 1980s.
