    MEMORIES, MATERS and the MYSTIQUE Submitted by VALARIE ROBINSON T.I.T.C. Bed. (LIB), BVA (HONS) STUDENT NO. 14314179 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the MASTER OF VISUAL ART- by RESEARCH SUPERVISORS: NEIL FETTLING STEPHEN TURPIE School of Visual Arts and Design Faculty of Humanities and Social Science La Trobe University Bundoora, Victoria, 3086 Australia APRIL 2011 - 1 - ABSTRACT What was the contribution of the women who pioneered Mildura? The contribution and the endowment made by female pioneers to Mildura, is rarely recorded or acknowledged in historical documents and newspapers locally. Through reading about pioneer women in Australia, novels written between the 1880’s and 1920 and the role of women in history and prehistory, I researched why women, not just the pioneers, have become almost invisible in written records. The laws of the land and the customs of the Christian Church perpetuated the myth that women were the weaker sex and doomed them to life in the background supporting the hero, the masculine1. Male dominated perspective of feminine crafts such as embroidery and the fibre arts contributed to their exclusion from the mainstream of art and their rejection by art historians.2 With the rise of feminism in the 1890’s and more radically and profoundly in the 1970’s, the acceptance of the value of both women and women’s work, became possible.3 Art made a century ago by males and females confirmed the evidence of biased historical documentation in books and newspapers. However contemporary artists now use a variety of media without specific boundaries to express their concepts, emotions, criticisms on life.

  • Future/Forward Day 2 2018
    Future/Forward Day 2 2018 Session 1: Welcome to Parliament with Justine Van Mourik Penelope: Firstly, I'd like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land where we gather today, the Ngunnawal people, and pay my respects to elders past, present, and emerging. Also acknowledge all the wonderful Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander people here with us today. Now I'm going to introduce Justine van Mourik, the Director of Exhibitions and Collections of Parliament House to talk to us about the collection, and your work here. Justine: Thanks Penelope. I'm going to do that thing at the beginning of the school tour. Can I have a show of hands if you've been in this building before. That's pretty great, not bad. Audience 1: Probably, we went to school. Justine: Did you get dragged through at school? I'm too old for that. One of the wonderful things about this building, and I'm going to explain. For some of you this is probably a bit remedial, but for others, it hopefully will just give you a bit of insight and into this building. And I say ‘this building’ because I separate this building from the government. The Parliament is not the same as the government. Parliament house was designed to have a license 200 years. Parliamentarians come and grow; this building will remain. One of the beautiful things about this building is when Mitchell / Giurgola & Thorp designed this building, the question of meaning came up. How do you view a structure with meaning? And another gentleman wrote a quite similar paper to the speaker which was Billy Sanborn saying - the only way that I can give you a building with meaning and what it means to be Australian and all its facets is through the use of art and basically asks to give him a fairly large sum of money to create what would become the parliament house art and craft program.

Interested parties may contact the editors. Silvia Micheli, University of Queensland Brisbane, Australia’s New World City: The Making of Public and Institutional Spaces in South Bank from Expo ’88 to the G20 In 1988 Brisbane hosted the Expo as part of its Australian Bicentenary celebrations. Organised at South Bank, it was an international event that proved a turning point in the city’s development. Positioned on the Brisbane River, in front of the CBD and next to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, the area became an urban experiment, testing how Brisbane would respond to a central area dedicated to recreation and mass consumption. South Bank Parklands has grown in concert with the adjacent institutional precinct of South Brisbane dominated by the Queensland Cultural Centre, to an extent that today the two areas are recognised under the unifying name of South Bank. Its complexity is generated by the alternation of institutional buildings, leisure structures and public spaces aligned along the river with excellent infrastructure connections.

  • Yokohama, July 2018
    The 18th International Planning History Society Conference - Yokohama, July 2018 How Urban Spaces Remember: Memory and Transformation at Two Expo Sites Jennifer Minner*, Martin Abbott** * PhD, Department of City and Regional Planning, Cornell University, [email protected] ** PhD Student, Department of City and Regional Planning, Cornell University, [email protected] International Expos can leave long-lasting imprints on host cities. The production and evolution of legacy public spaces from these events deserve scholarly attention. Case studies were conducted at two former expo sites in the US and Australia, focusing on the role of retention, reuse, heritage, and parks conservation in the evolution of public spaces. In preparation for Hemisfair ’68, in San Antonio, Texas, conservationists saved 22 historic buildings out of hundreds demolished. Although only a small proportion of buildings were preserved, preservationists challenged a modernist urban renewal plan and the design became a precedent for incorporating heritage conservation in modern urban design. Today, the Hemisfair site is subject to new redevelopment plans. Calls to preserve remaining modernist pavilions challenge New Urbanist visions for the site. In a second case study, an industrial district was cleared and a working-class neighbourhood transformed for Expo ’88, in Brisbane, Queensland. The site was later redeveloped into the South Bank Parklands. Over time, South Bank evolved through redevelopment and master planning, public outcry, and instances of conservation in and around the expo site. Common to both cases is the conservation of parks, heritage, and artwork, outcomes of individual and collective actions to shape urban landscapes. Keywords: Expos, Mega-events, World’s fairs, Heritage Conservation, Parkland, San Antonio, Brisbane, Historic Preservation, Collective Memory Introduction International expos, or world’s fairs, have restructured and transformed urban spaces in host cities around the world.

  • ELISABETH CUMMINGS Interior Landscapes Curated by Sioux Garside
    ELISABETH CUMMINGS interior landscapes Curated by Sioux Garside 26 May – 23 July 2017 Born in 1934, in Brisbane Elisabeth Cummings was raised in a home filled with paintings and sculpture. Her parents regularly held an ‘open house’ for on Sunday evenings for American soldiers headquartered in Brisbane and also welcomed many Australian artists including David Strachan, Donald Friend, Margaret Olley & Roy Dalgarno. Her father, an architect and academic, was also a trustee at the Queensland Art Gallery. As a child she and her brother would attend Vida Lahey’s art classes held on Fridays. The family holidayed at Currumbin on the Gold Coast and in her final year of high school after tuition from Margaret Cilento she became determined to study art and, with her encouragement, decided to attend the National Art School in Sydney. She moved to Sydney and studied under Dorothy Thornhill, Godfrey Miller, Jimmy Cook and Ralph Balson between 1953-57. In 1958 she was awarded the New South Wales Travelling Art Scholarship which enabled her to travel to Europe where she lived in Italy, France and England where she was inspired by the work of Cézanne, Matisse and Vuillard. She also travelled to Salzburg and studied under Oskar Kokoschka at his School of Vision. After a decade of living in Europe, Elisabeth Cummings returned to Australia and settled in Sydney. She had missed the Australian bush and land and this now provided the stimulation for her work. She commenced teaching at the National Art School in 1969, instructing countless students there during her thirty year tenure as a lecturer and exhibiting regularly in Brisbane and Sydney.
