The Grainger Museum in Its Museological and Historical Contexts
THE GRAINGER MUSEUM IN ITS MUSEOLOGICAL AND HISTORICAL CONTEXTS Belinda Jane Nemec Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy February 2006 The Australian Centre The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper ABSTRACT This thesis examines the Grainger Museum at the University of Melbourne in the context of the history of museums, particularly those in Europe, the United States and Australia, during the lifetime of its creator, Percy Aldridge Grainger (1882–1961). Drawing on the collection of the Grainger Museum itself, and on both primary and secondary sources relating to museum development in the late nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries, the thesis demonstrates that the Grainger Museum reflects many of the concerns of museums of Grainger’s day, especially of the years prior to his relocation to the United States in 1914. Many of those concerns were products of the nationalistic endeavours arising from political upheavals and redefinitions in nineteenth-century Europe, the imperialism which reached its zenith by the First World War, and the racialist beliefs, hierarchies and anxieties accompanying that imperialism. In particular, Grainger’s lifelong concern with racial identity manifested in hierarchical and evolutionary museum interpretations typical of his earlier years. I explore the paradox of Grainger’s admiration for the musical and material culture of the racial ‘other’ and his racially supremacist views, and the way he presented these two apparently conflicting ideologies in his Museum. In elucidating Grainger’s motives for establishing a museum, I argue that Grainger was raised in a social and cultural milieu in which collecting, classifying and displaying cultural material was a popular practice.

It had the primary aim of providing new galleries for the Early Renaissance collection. It was also intended to give a new outward-looking face for the Gallery with expanded public facilities, including a larger temporary exhibition space. However, this space has been much criticised for its basement location and resulting lack of natural light. The rooms are limited in size and some are irregular in shape which make it difficult to install larger works and to provide enough viewing space for visitors to popular shows.

He was previously the founding curator of Prints, Drawings, and Rare Books at the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven, Connecticut, where he organized 80 exhibitions in 20 years, including “The English Miniature” (1981) in collaboration with the Victoria and Albert Museum and “The Human Form Divine, William Blake from the Paul Mellon Collection” (1997). He has published and lectured extensively on French and British art from the 1700s and 1800s, focusing on the relationships between artists working in different countries, particularly during the Romantic era. This expertise has informed many exhibitions, including “Crossing the Channel: British and French Painting in the Age of Romanticism,” organized with the Tate Britain and the Metropolitan Museum of Art and shown at Mia in 2003, as well as the catalogues raisonnés he published in 2008/10 of the paintings and drawings of British Romantic artist Richard Parkes Bonington, who mediated the British and French schools in the 1820s. His exploration of French Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix’s influence—“Delacroix and the Rise of Modern Art”— was organized with the National Gallery in London and debuted at Mia in 2015.

Tate Research the Studios at the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, St Ives Developmental Seminar, 20–21 May 2013 R
1 Tate Research The Studios at the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, St Ives Developmental Seminar, 20–21 May 2013 Report Introduction The developmental seminar saw the launch of a Tate Conservation project, funded through the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, with additional support from Friends of Heritage Preservation, to restore and preserve the plaster and carving studios at the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden in St Ives. The developmental seminar, overseen by Nigel LlewLlewellynellyn and convened by Helena Bonett on behalf of Tate Research, was intended to tackle the various issues involved in intervening in such a space. The purpose of the event was not to make decisions about the conservation plan but to discuss possibilities and set out options for the project steering group. The main part of the seminar took place at Tate St Ives with time also spent at the Hepworth Museum viewing the studios. After identifying the research questions and overarching themes for the seminar, participants from a wide range of disciplines were selected to address those themes. Day One The seminar began with an introduction from Mark OsterfieldOsterfield (Tate St Ives) on the significance of the Hepworth Museum to Tate, followed by NNNigelNigel and HHHelenaHelena on the seminar itself, and an introduction to the conservation project by Deborah Potter (Tate) and Melanie Rolfe (Tate). Session One: Introduction and History Sophie Bowness (Hepworth Estate) gave a presentation addressing the history of the carving and plastplasterer studiosstudios. Through the use of archival photographs, Sophie provided an overview of the history of these two studios, as well as Trewyn Studio itself, both during Hepworth’s lifetime and since.
