I am delighted to present the stories of the women who join the Victorian Honour Roll of Women in 2005. It is fitting that we pay tribute to their many achievements. Their stories reveal the way in which each of these women has used their unique skills, experiences and insights to enrich their world. Whether they have worked behind the scenes in support of local communities or on the international stage, each of these women have created better opportunities for women in Victoria, in Australia and beyond. They have provided leadership, they have touched the lives of those around them, they have helped improve the lives of women and their families and they have helped produce long term change for the better. But these stories will do more than describe achievements. They will remind you, as they remind me, of the strength that resides within women to achieve extraordinary things.

  • Remembering Edouard Borovansky and His Company 1939–1959
    REMEMBERING EDOUARD BOROVANSKY AND HIS COMPANY 1939–1959 Marie Ada Couper Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne 1 ABSTRACT This project sets out to establish that Edouard Borovansky, an ex-Ballets Russes danseur/ teacher/choreographer/producer, was ‘the father of Australian ballet’. With the backing of J. C. Williamson’s Theatres Limited, he created and maintained a professional ballet company which performed in commercial theatre for almost twenty years. This was a business arrangement, and he received no revenue from either government or private sources. The longevity of the Borovansky Australian Ballet company, under the direction of one person, was a remarkable achievement that has never been officially recognised. The principal intention of this undertaking is to define Borovansky’s proper place in the theatrical history of Australia. Although technically not the first Australian professional ballet company, the Borovansky Australian Ballet outlasted all its rivals until its transformation into the Australian Ballet in the early 1960s, with Borovansky remaining the sole person in charge until his death in 1959. In Australian theatre the 1930s was dominated by variety shows and musical comedies, which had replaced the pantomimes of the 19th century although the annual Christmas pantomime remained on the calendar for many years. Cinemas (referred to as ‘picture theatres’) had all but replaced live theatre as mass entertainment. The extremely rare event of a ballet performance was considered an exotic art reserved for the upper classes. ‘Culture’ was a word dismissed by many Australians as undefinable and generally unattainable because of our colonial heritage, which had long been the focus of English attitudes.

  • Lynette Russell – 'An Unpicturesque Vagrant': Aboriginal Victorians at The
    Lynette Russell ‘An unpicturesque vagrant’: Aboriginal Victorians at the Melbourne International Exhibition 1880–1881* THE GRAND DAME of Melbourne architecture, the Royal Exhibition Building was the first non-Aboriginal cultural site in Australia awarded UNESCO World Heritage listing. In 2004, in Suzhou China, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee announced that the Royal Exhibition Building and surrounding Carlton Gardens qualified under cultural criterion (ii) of the Operational Guidelines for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention. Criterion (ii) lists sites that exhibit ‘an important interchange of human values, over a span of time or within a cultural area of the world, on developments in architecture or technology, monumental arts, town-planning or landscape design’.1 The Royal Exhibition Building does, however, have links to the Aboriginal community of Melbourne beyond being constructed on Kulin land. Contemporary Kulin connections are intensified by the proximity to the Melbourne Museum and Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre. This article considers some evidence of Aboriginal presence at the Exhibition building during the Melbourne International Exhibition of 1880-81. The Exhibition building was famously built to house the Melbourne International Exhibition of 1880-81. Designed by architect Joseph Reed, the building was heralded as a magnificent achievement – indeed it was monumental, with its dome the tallest construction in the city. As Graeme Davison illustrated in his seminal study Marvellous Melbourne, our metropolis was, in the 1880s, a boom city; the International exhibition was to be a celebration of the city’s economic success, its technological and industrial achievements and all that was marvellous.2 The newspapers and magazines carried articles that exulted the enthusiasm and energy of the city along with the incredible optimism that characterised the 1880s boom.

  • 2012 Victorian Architecture Awards | Architectureau 2012 Victorian Architecture Awards
    2017­5­15 2012 Victorian Architecture Awards | ArchitectureAU 2012 Victorian Architecture Awards Awards | Words Shelley Penn The Royal Children’s Hospital by Billard Leece Partnership and Bates Smart. Image: John Gollings The 2012 Victorian Architecture Awards were announced at a presentation dinner on 29 June, held at Crown Palladium in Melbourne. Jury comment The 2012 Victorian state awards program has seen a dramatic rise in the number of entries from previous years. The years 2010 and 2011 saw about a 1 percent growth, yet this year there was a 21 percent increase — we received a total of 235 entries. Significant jumps in the categories of Heritage, Residential Alterations and Additions, Residential Multiple and Urban Design were somewhat countered by lowered numbers in Commercial and New Public Architecture — a sign of the times perhaps. Despite economic uncertainty, however, Victorian architects are continuing to deliver outstanding work. Together, the fifty­seven awards and commendations hint, through their breadth and exceptional quality, at the enormous scope of architecture’s contribution to Victorian society and culture. Each entry, from the smallest private intervention to the larger civic projects, reveals the generosity of spirit, innovation and tenacity that underpin excellent architecture. All of the architects who entered projects, who put their work under the glare of peer evaluation and thereby gave us all a glimpse of the great things underway in Victorian architecture, are sincerely thanked. I also thank the jurors, who have contributed substantially to this year’s awards through their time and rigorous consideration — a contribution that is essential to the credibility and distinction that characterize the Institute’s awards programs.
