MISSION The mission of the Art Gallery of South Australia is to serve the South Australian and wider communities by providing access to original works of art of the highest quality. Through its permanent collections, temporary exhibitions and other public programs, the Art Gallery seeks to foster, promote and enhance understanding and enjoyment of the visual arts in general. VISION To be a leading art museum in Australia and the Asia Pacific Region that: • is highly respected for the quality and display of its collection, exhibitions, programs, interpretation and research; • engages South Australians from all walks of life in the visual arts; • enlivens and enriches the cultural dimension of the city and the state; and • is a major attraction for interstate and international visitors to South Australia. GOVERNMENT OBJECTIVES In addition, the Art Gallery plays a significant role in delivering specific elements of the South Australian Government’s seven strategic priorities: • Creating a vibrant city Creating an eclectic and exciting artistic program which attracts local and interstate visitors to the North Terrace precinct, greatly increasing the numbers of people in the city while bringing vibrancy to the city streets. This in turn will enhance the city’s atmospheric appeal and build upon the South Australian brand. • Every chance for every child Learning and children’s programs are at the core of the Art Gallery’s artistic program, as it is recognised that building a lifelong love of the visual arts and the Art Gallery begins at an early age. 6 MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS 2014–2015 (Note: Where appropriate, relationship to South Australia’s Strategic Plan is indicated) Strategic Development This year marks the completion of the Art Gallery of South Australia Strategic Plan 2010-15. Major achievements include a greater focus in engaging with a wide and diverse range of visitors and participants in Gallery programs. This is apparent in general attendance figures rising from 480 363 in 2009-10 to 756 846 in 2014-15. This significant growth has been driven by the expansion of family and children’s programs through the START program presented by the Balnaves Foundation and The Studio program presented by the James and Diana Ramsay Foundation. Also contributing to the strong growth in visitor numbers has been the activation of the collection through the introduction of themed collection displays which regularly change supported by focussed public programs. The expansion of programs has been primarily driven by the diversification and growth of private philanthropy support for projects through both the Foundation and Contemporary Collectors groups. During the year Contemporary Collectors presented and funded the Trent Parke: The Black Rose exhibition and the Foundation supported the Treasure Ships: Art in the Age of Spices exhibition with a major appeal. The Dorrit Black: Unseen Forces and Mortimer Menpes exhibition publications were also supported by private philanthropy. The Gallery continues to develop a plan for a new digital strategy and has been successful in receiving a three year grant from the Ian Potter Foundation to initiate this new approach to managing the Art Gallery’s digital environment. Following the introduction of the Gallery’s Due Diligence and Provenance Policy work continues on improving the Gallery’s provenance history. The Gallery’s website now displays works with incomplete provenance in both the Asian and European collections and these lists are being added to regularly as research progresses. Plans are also underway to review acquisition documentation in keeping with best practice. Community Engagement 756 846 people visited the Gallery to see the permanent collection and exhibitions, an increase from 674 393 visitors in the last financial year. This is a 12% increase over the last financial year and continues the upward trend in visitor numbers. This total increased to 779 245 people with the inclusion of off- site exhibitions (SASP Target 4: Tourism industry; SASP Target 99: Cultural engagement – institutions). A total of 9 445 visitors attended 130 talks and tours; 13 practical workshops and demonstrations were attended by 513 people; in addition 14 957 visitors attended 1 661 guided tours delivered by the Gallery volunteer Guides; 6 923 visitors attended the Gallery’s children’s and family programs and events; and, 33 757 school students and support staff visited the Gallery as part of the Schools Support Services and 876 teachers received professional development (SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). The Fashion Icons: Masterpieces from the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris exhibition attracted 60 000 visitors, with 26% of the audience identified as tourists. In conjuction with the exhibition the Gallery staged five after-hours events to give visitors to opportunity to view Fashion Icons out of normal working hours, 5pm–10pm, which attracted 2 092 patrons (SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). 7 In November 2014 the Gallery launched its after-hours program ‘First Fridays’ supported by major partner Santos. On the first Friday of each month the Gallery stayed open until 9pm with the evening focussing on the Gallery’s current exhibition and consisting of guest speakers, guided tours and live entertainment. The Studio, presented by the James and Diana Ramsay Foundation, has continued to be very successful. The Studio is a permanent hands-on activity centre offering free programs seven days a week with the space and activities reconfigured on a regular basis to reflect current exhibitions. From Monday to Friday the schedule is focused on school groups while weekends and school holidays are programmed for family visits. A total of 22 598 patrons participated in the program in the 2014-15 year (SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). The Gallery Website had 306 831 unique visits, with 1 069 477 pages viewed. Artistic Program The Gallery lent a total of 110 works to 24 exhibitions, including a major national touring exhibition and an international touring exhibition (SASP Target 4: Tourism Industry; SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activity). Five major temporary exhibitions were staged at the Gallery: Dorrit Black: unseen forces ; The World of Mortimer Menpes: Painter, Etcher, Raconteur ; Fashion Icons: Masterpieces from the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris ; Trent Parke: The Black Rose ; and Treasure Ships: Art in the Age of Spices (a complete list of exhibitions and public programs is at Appendix H) (SASP Target 4: Tourism industry; SASP Target 99: Cultural engagement – institutions; SASP Target 3 Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). Twenty-three special collection displays were staged at the Gallery, full details in Appendix H under Collection Display Exhibitions (SASP Target 4: Tourism industry; SASP Target 3: Cultural engagement – institutions; SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). The Gallery produced the following publications and other merchandise: Fashion Icons: Masterpieces from the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris ; Trent Parke: The Black Rose ; Treasure Ships: Art in the Age of Spices ; Spring 2014, Summer 2014–15, Autumn and Winter 2015 Articulate magazines; children’s activity trails; and a range of merchandise including boxed greeting cards and postcards, umbrellas, jigsaw puzzles, fridge magnets and various leaflets and brochures promoting exhibitions (SASP Target 99: Cultural engagement – institutions; SASP Target 3: Cultural vibrancy – arts activities). Collection Development 573 works of art were acquired across all areas of the collection. Details of significant additions to the collection are available in the section Collections Development with a complete list of acquisitions at Appendix E (SASP Target 4: Tourism industry; SASP Target 99: Cultural engagement – institutions; SASP Target 27: Understanding of Aboriginal culture; SASP Target 6: Aboriginal wellbeing).

  • The River Torrens—Friend and Foe Part 2
    The River Torrens—friend and foe Part 2: The river as an obstacle to be crossed RICHARD VENUS Richard Venus BTech, BA, GradCertArchaeol, MIE Aust is a retired electrical engineer who now pursues his interest in forensic heritology, researching and writing about South Australia’s engineering heritage. He is Chairman of Engineering Heritage South Australia and Vice President of the History Council of South Australia. His email is [email protected] Beginnings In Part 1 we looked the River Torrens as a friend—a source of water vital to the establishment of the new settlement. However, in common with so many other European settlements, the developing community very quickly polluted its own water supply and another source had to be found. This was still the River Torrens but the water was collected in the Torrens Gorge, about 13 kilometres north-east of the City, and piped down Payneham Road to the Valve House in the East Parklands. Water from this source was first made available in December 1860 as reported in the South Australian Advertiser on 26 December. The significant challenge presented by the Torrens was getting across it. In summer, when the river was little more than a series of pools, you could just walk across. However, there must have been a significant body of water somewhere – probably in the vicinity of today’s weir – because in July 1838 tenders were called ‘For the rent for six months of the small punt on the Torrens for foot passengers, for each of whom a toll of one penny will be authorised to be charged from day-light to dark, and two pence after dark’ (Register 28 July).

  • Parallel Adaptations of Japanese Whiting, Sillago Japonica Under Temperature Stress

The mechanism by which organisms adapt to temperature in response to climate change must be determined. We sequenced the whole genomes of Sillago japonica individuals collected from different latitudinal locations along the coastal waters of China and Japan to detect the possible thermal adaptations. A total of 5.48 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from five populations revealed a complete genetic break between the China and Japan groups. This genetic structure was partly attributed to geographic distance and local adaptation. Although parallel evolution within species is comparatively rare at the DNA level, the shared natural selection genes between two isolated populations (Zhoushan and Ise Bay/Tokyo Bay) indicated possible parallel evolution at the genetic level induced by temperature. Our result proved that the process of temperature selection on isolated populations is repeatable. Additionally, the candidate genes were functionally related to membrane fluidity in cold environments and the cytoskeleton in high-temperature environments. These results advance our understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying the rapid adaptations of fish species. Projections of species distribution models suggested that China and Japan groups may have different responses to future climate changes: the former could expand, whereas the latter may contract.

  • Sixteen Years of Labor Government in South Australia, 2002-2018
    AUSTRALASIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW Parliament in the Periphery: Sixteen Years of Labor Government in South Australia, 2002-2018* Mark Dean Research Associate, Australian Industrial Transformation Institute, Flinders University of South Australia * Double-blind reviewed article. Abstract This article examines the sixteen years of Labor government in South Australia from 2002 to 2018. With reference to industry policy and strategy in the context of deindustrialisation, it analyses the impact and implications of policy choices made under Premiers Mike Rann and Jay Weatherill in attempts to progress South Australia beyond its growing status as a ‘rustbelt state’. Previous research has shown how, despite half of Labor’s term in office as a minority government and Rann’s apparent disregard for the Parliament, the executive’s ‘third way’ brand of policymaking was a powerful force in shaping the State’s development. This article approaches this contention from a new perspective to suggest that although this approach produced innovative policy outcomes, these were a vehicle for neo-liberal transformations to the State’s institutions. In strategically avoiding much legislative scrutiny, the Rann and Weatherill governments’ brand of policymaking was arguably unable to produce a coordinated response to South Australia’s deindustrialisation in a State historically shaped by more interventionist government and a clear role for the legislature. In undermining public services and hollowing out policy, the Rann and Wethearill governments reflected the path dependency of responses to earlier neo-liberal reforms, further entrenching neo-liberal responses to social and economic crisis and aiding a smooth transition to Liberal government in 2018. INTRODUCTION For sixteen years, from March 2002 to March 2018, South Australia was governed by the Labor Party.

The influence of Japanese art is a phenomenon that is now called Japonisme , and it spread widely throughout Western art. It is quite hard to make a clear definition of Japonisme because of the breadth of the phenomenon, but it could be generally agreed that it is an attempt to understand and adapt the essential qualities of Japanese art. This thesis explores Japanese influences on British Art and will focus on four artists working in Britain: the American James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), the Australian Mortimer Menpes (1855-1938), and two artists from the group known as the Glasgow Boys, George Henry (1858-1934) and Edward Atkinson Hornel (1864-1933).
