  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

She paints in the direct sunlight, as evidenced by the thickness of the paint and the sheen of its surface. Wintjiya Napaltjarri first began painting when she participated in the Kintore/Haasts Bluff joint project in the mid 1990s. Until 2004, Wintjiya painted with her sister Tjunkiya Napaltjarri at the Papunya Tula Artists shed in Kintore but since then she has painted from her home: the widow’s camp outside her ‘son’ Turkey Tolson’s former residence. Wintjiya has been in many group exhibitions and a number of solo exhibitions, as well as having work in major collections including the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the National Gallery of Victoria and the Aboriginal Art Museum in The Netherlands.
