  • 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.

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.

  • Regulatory Strategies for Managing Noise from Outdoor Music Concerts
    Proceedings of ACOUSTICS 2016 9-11 November 2016, Brisbane, Australia Regulatory Strategies for Managing Noise from Outdoor Music Concerts Alex Marchuk 1 and Frank Henry 1 1City Planning and Sustainability Division, Brisbane City Council, Brisbane, Australia ABSTRACT Government authorities are faced with a number of challenges when attempting to regulate noise from outdoor concerts. A key difficulty is the ability of an authority to meaningfully influence the behaviour of a concert operator during the concert itself. In many jurisdictions, penalties for environmental noise nuisance are an insufficient deterrent – resulting in permit conditions and noise limits being routinely exceeded or ignored. Authorities can also face a regulatory burden where noise conditions are technically difficult to measure, difficult to determine compliance, and require specialised equipment and staff to be available outside standard business hours. Noise regulations need to be carefully determined with the aim of motivating good noise self-regulation without being prohibitively punitive or impractical. Noise limits need to consider the realistic sound levels that are needed to hold a successful concert, while still preventing unreasonable behaviour. This strategy has been implemented by setting noise measurement locations at the sound mixing desk. Mixing desk staff can then monitor their own levels with immediate feedback and corrections where required. Self-monitoring provides industry with the ability to clearly demonstrate responsible behaviour to authorities and the community and it provides certainty and security for future use of the venue. 1. INTRODUCTION Outdoor music concert noise creates a unique regulatory challenge for authorities. Most noise regulation considers noise over long term periods with fixed and relatively predictable sources e.g.

  • Sebastian Di Mauro Greenback
    SEBASTIAN DI MAURO GREENBACK 7 NOVEMBER – 7 DECEMBER 2019 My maternal grandparents immigrated to Australia at the turn of the 20th century. Whilst my paternal grandparents and father arrived in Australia in the 1920s. I grew up on a continent far from where they had immigrated–Sicily. My upbringing was a rich experience living between two very different cultures. At four I was bilingual speaking Italian and English. It must have been difficult for my grandparents to comprehend the political incarnations of their new land. Much of their understanding would have come from their children. We lived in tropical far north Queensland until I was 13 when my family moved to Brisbane which is ironically in the same location as Delaware is on the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. I have recently immigrated to the USA and am reflecting on my experience of being an immigrant from a country thousands of miles away. I am married to a US citizen who was born and raised in Wilmington Delaware and so I have some understanding of the country I am now living in. During my childhood I watched copious television series from America and these created an image of a country similar to Australia. But the reality is very different. Nothing really prepares you for a new life in a completely different land. Subtleties become exaggerated, loss of self becomes exacerbated with no immediate family or lifelong friends to support and nurture you. Blankets have been part of my artistic lexicon since 1996 where I used electric blankets splayed on the wall of the gallery.
