  • Why Has Soccer Not Become the Code of Football in Australia

Copyright : 2006, Taylor & Francis ..‘Our wicked foreign game’: Why has Association Football (soccer) not become the main code of football in Australia?∗ Roy Hay Sports and Editorial Services Australia Introduction Soccer, ‘our wicked foreign game’, is not the main code of football in any state in Australia, but it is probably the second in most states if measured by spectator attendance or participation.1 In Victoria, Australian rules is number one, while in New South Wales, rugby league is the dominant code. The phenomenon is not unique to Australia. None of the white dominions of the old British Empire nor the former British colony the United States has soccer as its main code, with the exception of South Africa where the non-white population has taken up Association Football.2 In most of these countries soccer is characterised as a migrants’ game, even though many of the migrants playing or watching the game are of second or later generations. Explanations for the secondary position of soccer in Australia ought therefore to be compared with those for these other countries, and if we seek a comprehensive explanation of this phenomenon then the Australian story ought not to vary too much from those applied to the others, unless it can be clearly shown that Australian experience and conditions were indeed different.3 This article concentrates on the domestic experience in Australia, with a view to introducing and outlining some of the issues which might be drawn into an effective international comparison.

Once the home and studio of artist Margo and Gerald Lewers, the gallery site, was, as it is today - a place of lively debate, artistic creation and exhibitions at the foot of the Blue Mountains. The gallery is located on River Road beside the banks of the Nepean River. Once called Emu Island, Emu Plains was considered to be the land’s end, but as the home of artist Margo and Gerald Lewers it became the place for new beginnings. Creating a home founded on the principles of modernism, the Lewers lived, worked and entertained like-minded contemporaries set on fostering modernism as a holistic way of living.

    LA MITOLOGÍA CLÁSICA EN LOS MUSEOS DE AUSTRALIA MIGUEL ÁNGEL GARCÍA NAVARRETE & ANTONIO R. NAVARRETE ORCERA IES San Juan de la Cruz (Úbeda, Jaén) [email protected] Resumen Este trabajo es fruto de un viaje a Australia en busca de mitología y naturaleza virgen. Se visitan tres importantes museos: Art Gallery of New South Wales (Sydney), Nati onal Gallery of Victoria (Melbourne) y Art Gallery of South Australia (Adelaida), que sorprenden tanto por la cantidad como por la belleza de las obras mitológicas contenidas en ellos. Palabras clave Australia, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaida, museos de arte, mitología, pintura. Abstract This work is the result of a trip to Australia, trying to find mythology and nature. Three major museums have been visited: Art Gallery of New South Wales (Sydney), National Gallery of Victoria (Melbourne) and Art Gallery of South Australia (Adelaida). All of them are impressive not only because of the number, but also the beauty of their mythological works of art. Key words Australia, Sydney, Melbourn, Adelaida, Art Gallery, mythology, painting.

NAVARRETE ORCERA 442 A las bellezas naturales que de por sí ofrece el continente australiano, se añade otra no menos atractiva, la de albergar mitología, en sus museos y en sus calles. Así lo pudimos comprobar mi sobrino Miguel Ángel —coautor de este trabajo— y yo mismo en un reciente viaje a tres de las principales ciudades de Australia: Sydney, Melbourne y Adelaida. Nos sorprendió encontrar en ellas tantas —y tan bellas— obras de mitología, que nos dio la impresión de estar en casa, a pesar de los miles de kilómetros que nos separaban.

A celebration of life, art and exhibition This year Penrith Regional Gallery & The Lewers Bequest celebrates 75 years of art practice and exhibition on this site. In 1942, Gerald Lewers purchased this property to use as an occasional residence while working nearby as manager of quarrying company Farley and Lewers. A decade later, the property became the family home of Gerald and Margo Lewers and their two daughters, Darani and Tanya. It was here the family pursued their individual practices as artists and welcomed many Sydney artists, architects, writers and intellectuals. At this site in Western Sydney, modernist thinking and art practice was nurtured and flourished. Upon the passing of Margo Lewers in 1978, the daughters of Margo and Gerald Lewers sought to honour their mother’s wish that the house and garden at Emu Plains be gifted to the people of Penrith along with artworks which today form the basis of the Gallery’s collection. Received by Penrith City Council in 1980, the Neville Wran led state government supported the gift with additional funds to create a purpose built gallery on site. Opened in 1981, the gallery supports a seasonal exhibition, education and public program.

  • Thesis Title
    Creating a Scene: The Role of Artists’ Groups in the Development of Brisbane’s Art World 1940-1970 Judith Rhylle Hamilton Bachelor of Arts (Hons) University of Queensland Bachelor of Education (Arts and Crafts) Melbourne State College A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2014 School of English, Media Studies and Art History ii Abstract This study offers an analysis of Brisbane‘s art world through the lens of artists‘ groups operating in the city between 1940 and 1970. It argues that in the absence of more extensive or well-developed art institutions, artists‘ groups played a crucial role in the growth of Brisbane‘s art world. Rather than focusing on an examination of ideas about art or assuming the inherently ‗philistine‘ and ‗provincial‘ nature of Brisbane‘s art world, the thesis examines the nature of the city‘s main art institutions, including facilities for art education, the art market, conservation and collection of art, and writing about art. Compared to the larger Australian cities, these dimensions of the art world remained relatively underdeveloped in Brisbane, and it is in this context that groups such as the Royal Queensland Art Society, the Half Dozen Group of Artists, the Younger Artists‘ Group, Miya Studios, St Mary‘s Studio, and the Contemporary Art Society Queensland Branch provided critical forms of institutional support for artists. Brisbane‘s art world began to take shape in 1887 when the Queensland Art Society was founded, and in 1940, as the Royal Queensland Art Society, it was still providing guidance for a small art world struggling to define itself within the wider network of Australian art.

  • Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division Objection to Proposed Redistribution
    1 LIBERAL PARTY OF AUSTRALIA, NEW SOUTH WALES DIVISION OBJECTION TO PROPOSED REDISTRIBUTION 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. The Liberal Party of Australia, New South Wales Division (the “Liberal Party”) objects to the redistribution proposed by the Redistribution Committee for New South Wales. This objection is lodged with the Electoral Commission pursuant to section 69 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. 1.2. In summary the Liberal Party objects to the following: (a) Wentworth/Kingsford Smith/Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundaries between these three divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that these proposed boundaries do not give due consideration to community of interests within Wentworth and community of interests within Sydney. (b) Paterson/Newcastle – the Liberal Party objects to the proposed boundary between these two divisions. The primary basis for the objection is that the proposed boundary does not give due consideration to community of interests within Paterson, especially for the Port Stephens local government area. (c) Country New South Wales and western Sydney – the Liberal Party objects to the boundaries for the proposed divisions of Macquarie, Calare, Parkes and Parramatta (with consequential effects for some other proposed divisions in country New South Wales and western Sydney).The primary bases for the objections are that the proposed boundaries: (i) do not give due consideration to community of interests between Bathurst and Orange, 2 (ii) do not give due consideration to community of interests between the Blue Mountains and the Hawkesbury region, (iii) are based upon an erroneous conclusion about the strength of communities of interest between Bathurst area and the Blue Mountains, (iv) result in a division of Parkes which is far too large, and (v) split Parramatta CBD from the division of Parramatta.
