  • National Capital Authority
    NATIONAL CAPITAL AUTHORITY Submission to House of Representatives Standing Committee on Environment and Heritage Sustainable Cities 2025 1. INTRODUCTION The National Capital Authority has prepared this submission in response to the inquiry by the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Environment and Heritage into issues and policies related to the development of sustainable cities to the year 2025. The Authority has been guided in its response by the Terms of Reference for the Inquiry provided by the Standing Committee: Terms of Reference • The environmental and social impacts of sprawling urban development; • The major determinants of urban settlement patterns and desirable patterns of development for the growth of Australian cities; • A ‘blueprint’ for ecologically sustainable patterns of settlement, with particular reference to eco-efficiency and equity in the provision of services and infrastructure; • Measures to reduce the environmental, social and economic costs of continuing urban expansion; and • Mechanisms for the Commonwealth to bring about urban development reform and promote ecologically sustainable patterns of settlement. The Authority’s submission provides the relevant background information on the Authority's role in planning and development in the ACT, and how the Authority both addresses and influences sustainability in its role to achieve ‘a National Capital which symbolises Australia’s heritage, values and aspirations, is internationally recognised, and which Australian’s are proud’. It sets out the provisions of the National Capital Plan applicable to sustainability and identifies initiatives undertaken by the Authority to create a more sustainable environment. 2. NATIONAL CAPITAL AUTHORITY The National Capital Planning Authority was established in 1989 as part of the introduction of self-government in the ACT, with a view to securing the Federal Government’s continuing interest in the planning and development of Canberra as Australia’s National Capital.

    The Elements within Sculpture - 4 June to 15 July 2011 L A U R A I N E · D I G G I N S · F I N E · A R T The Elements within Sculpture Such Diversity e have travelled a long way! The distance between the sculpture of Sir Bertram Mackennal (1863-1931) and the extraordinarily diverse works W produced by contemporary Australian sculptors is virtually immeasurable. Some fascinating links, nevertheless, remain. Bertram Mackennal was the first Australian artist to achieve great success overseas.* For most of his career he was resident in London where he was accepted by the establishment and enjoyed royal patronage. Furthermore, he was the first Australian elected to the Royal Academy, the first to have a work purchased by the Tate Gallery and the first Australian artist to be knighted. Influenced by Rodin, he became part of the New Sculpture movement in the UK where he practiced an idealised DEL KATHRYN BARTON 1972 - I am loving you like this (version 2), 2008 naturalism, which gave a new life to the classical tradition. bronze edition 3/3 Essentially a modeller in clay, many of his works were subsequently cast in bronze, 100 x 34 x 36 cm while others were carved in marble. Relying heavily on commissions and patronage, he produced a great number of portrait busts, memorials such as the regal Queen Victoria Memorial, 1897-1901, at Ballarat and a wonderful series of very sensuous female nudes: the National Gallery of Victoria has his arresting Circe of 1893 in their collection. The sexuality was made palatable to the attitudes of his period by the use of classical references, as with Vesta, 1900, in this exhibition.

  • Anzac Parade and Our Changing Narrative of Memory1
    Anzac Parade and our changing narrative of memory1 IAN A. DEHLSEN Abstract Australian historian Ken Inglis once called Canberra’s Anzac Parade ‘Australia’s Sacred Way’. A quasi-religious encapsulation of the military legends said to define our national character. Yet, it remains to be discussed how the memorials on Anzac Parade have been shaped by these powerful and pervasive narratives. Each memorial tells a complex story, not just about the conflicts themselves but also the moral qualities the design is meant to invoke. The Anzac Parade memorials chart the changing perceptions of Australia’s military experience through the permanence of bronze and stone. This article investigates how the evolving face of Anzac Parade reflects Australia’s shifting relationship with its military past, with a particular emphasis on how shifting social, political and aesthetic trends have influenced the memorials’ design and symbolism. It is evident that the guiding narratives of Anzac Parade have slowly changed over time. The once all-pervasive Anzac legends of Gallipoli have been complemented by multicultural, gender and other thematic narratives more attuned to contemporary values and perceptions of military service. [This memorial] fixes a fleeting incident in time into the permanence of bronze and stone. But this moment in our history—fifty years ago—is typical of many others recorded not in monuments, but in the memories of our fighting men told and retold … until they have passed into the folklore of our people and into the tradition of our countries.2 These were the words of New Zealand Deputy Prime Minister J.R. Marshall at the unveiling of the Desert Mounted Corps Memorial on Anzac Parade, Canberra, in the winter of 1968.
