Before leaving Germany, Miksevicius had studied at a Bauhaus-style art school in Darmstadt. On arrival Miksevicius was settled at the Bathurst Migrant Camp but unlike most refugees who were transitioned out of the migrant camp after a few weeks, Miksevicius stayed for nine months. The camp director, William Rees, was aware of Miksevicius’ artistic skills and employed him to decorate the walls of the former army barracks’ recreation hall with caricatures of great Australian sportsmen, including swimmer John Marshall and tennis champion John Bromwich. Miksevicius was also provided with a studio space and encouraged to paint. It was here, in the Bathurst Migrant Camp, that he began to experiment painting with oils and trying to come to terms with the light, the gum trees and the Bathurst landscapes. Essentially, it was here in Bathurst that he began his 70-year career as an artist in Australia. This exhibition Jurgis Miksevicius: In the light of the sun and shadow of the moon charts his development as a painter: his studies at art school in Germany, his early paintings and murals at the Bathurst Migrant Camp, and then focuses on later landscapes and philosophical ‘moon’ paintings as examples of the many genres he explored throughout his creative life.

This exhibition brings together photography, video, installation and sound works drawn from the artist’s early conceptual and performative practice of the 1970s through to his more recent focus on still and moving imagery in the 21st century. Works selected demonstrate the range of media Kreckler employs in his desire to explore, extrapolate and test our understanding of our physical, cultural and social surrounds. Derek Kreckler: Accident & Process is a PICA touring exhibition curated by Hannah Mathews. HARRIE FASHER: THE LAST CHARGE Harrie Fasher’s monumental sculpture The Last Charge captures the raw emotion of the last charge of the Light Horse Brigade at the Battle of Beersheba on October 31, 1917. This powerful and terrifying vision of cavalry in full flight evokes the roar and chaos of battle, and the indefatigable bond between horse and rider.

    HERITAGE CITATION REPORT Name SPC Limited Address Andrew Fairley Avenue SHEPPARTON Significance Level B Place Type Factory/ Plant Citation Date 2004 Main Factory Building (c.1960 addition) Recommended VHR No HI - PS Yes Heritage Protection History and Historical Context The Shepparton Fruit Preserving Company (now known as SPC Ardmona) was formed in 1917. Production in the first year reached 432,000 tins. The original weatherboard building was described in the Shepparton Advertiser, in February 1918 as 'A great big building towering over everything else in the locality'. The company became the largest canner of fruit in Australia. New refrigerated cool stores were constructed in 1925, enabling the company to substantially increase its output. An office/administration building was erected in c.1927. By 1932-33, output had risen to 10,751,484 cans per annum. In 1934 more cool stores were built, designed by architects Twentyman & Askew. By 1939 the facilities had expanded to cover 12 acres of the existing 24 acre site. The expansion of the factory continued into the post-War period with a large canteen erected c.1946-48. In 1956 the company became Shepparton Preserving Company (SPC). The original main factory was substantially extended in c.1960. More warehouse facilities were erected along Byass and Lockwood Streets from the 1980s onwards. On 4 January 2002 SPC Limited and Ardmona Foods Limited merged to form SPC Ardmona Limited.
