AUCTIONEER: ANNE Phillips DIRECTOR, ART Market Works Pearls Achievements in 2015 PEARls PREEClAMPsIA REsEARCh lAbORATORIEs ChARITy AUCTION MAsTER Of CEREMONIEs AlEX PERRy sATURDAy, 17 OCTObER 2015 7:00PM - 10:00PM ART GALLERY OF NSW, ART GAllERy ROAD, ThE DOMAIN, syDNEy AUCTIONEER: ANNE PhIllIPs DIRECTOR, ART MARkET WORks Pearls achievements in 2015 Our research has demonstrated that the rates of preeclampsia has halved over the last decade, but that women who are still getting preeclampsia are prone to early delivery and seizures. Preeclampsia remains one of the most common complications or pregnancy and still causes a significant number of premature babies and poor outcomes for mothers. PEARLS researchers this year have shown that some of the target proteins that we have looked at are responsible for the high blood pressure and kidney protein leak that are typical of the condition. This is the first time that the proteins themselves have been deliberately found to be the cause of the high blood pressure and not an incidental finding. The laboratory team continues to explore ways that placentas can be measured to look at oxygen levels and other stress responses with the intention of developing better tests that can be used in early pregnancy to detect preeclampsia. This research won a National Science award in 2015 at the Australia and New Zealand Nephrology Society meeting. The clinical work of the team has shown a tendency for high blood pressure in later life that is not seen in women who had normal blood pressure in their pregnancy. This follows on from the ground breaking work last year which showed a link between snoring, interrupted breathing and high blood pressure leading to premature birth and preeclampsia. This work won an International Science prize in late 2014 and has been again presented at the World congress for Sleep in Korea in March 2015. Special thanks to the committee members Joseph Akelian Tony Harwood Stephen Broderick Annemarie Hennessy Sharon Burns Alex Perry Amanda Davidson Campbell Robertson-Swann Lauren Harvey 2 Special thanks to our major sponsors And extra special thanks to our MC Q&A with Amanda Davidson, Chair of Pearls Preeclampsia Research Laboratories 1. What inspired you to start the charity ‘Pearls Preeclampsia Research Laboratories’? I had preeclampsia when I was pregnant with my son Harry, and after he was born I had a discussion with my doctors about the condition. It was only then that I realised how widespread and devastating preeclampsia is. I just saw that something needed to be done, so I set about doing it. The inspiration really came from my brilliant doctors, Annemarie Hennessy and Geoff Brieger. 2. From your own personal experience, what advice would you give women regarding pregnancy? Make sure that you go for your regular check ups and get your blood pressure checked. It could be high without you even knowing it as there are often no symptoms. For example I had never had high blood pressure in the past and I have had normal blood pressure since. Then listen to your doctors and do what they say. I can remember clearly the day that I was diagnosed with preeclampsia. I was a partner with a major law firm with a very busy practice and at week 30 I was told to immediately go home to bed and rest. I was in the middle of a huge mining case and it was very hard to let go of that and focus on me and the baby. Luckily I had and still have amazing clients that supported me through that time. Just do what your doctors say. Not everything in life is within your control. 3. If you could had one wish for Pearls, what would that be? My wish is that we can learn how to prevent preeclampsia. If we could do that, we would save literally millions of lives. The figures are alarming with 1 in 10 pregnancies in Australia affected, and even higher in other countries who do not have the level of obstetric care that we enjoy here in Australia. The effects of preeclampsia are devastating both for mothers and babies and are often not discussed. My second wish would be that women come out and talk about their experience with preeclampsia. With more awareness we can raise more money for our critical medical research. 4. Professor Annemarie Hennessy is an incredibly inspiring woman. All the time and research she devotes to Pearls and the Heart Research institute is ground breaking. If you had one word to describe Professor Annemarie Hennessy, what would that be? Brilliant. Annemarie is the most capable, intelligent and compassionate person I have ever known. It is wonderful to be able to work with her as well as her incredible team. Finding the cause of preeclampsia was her life’s work, and finding a way of converting her teams’ ground breaking research into a practical way of preventing preeclampsia from occurring in the future will remain her life’s work. I’ll be there along the way to help in whatever way I can. Annemarie literally saved my life and that of my gorgeous son Harry. It’s the least I can do. 4 Many thanks to our Auctioneer Anne Phillips Anne Phillips Director, Art Market Works Anne is an accomplished auctioneer, with a decade of experience in helping collectors develop and refine their collections. She has advised private and corporate clients across a range of categories, including art, antiques and books. Prior to working in the auction industry, Anne was an academic and her areas of expertise include history, literature and Japanese studies. Her skills in the areas of research, writing, editing and critical analysis are widely acknowledged. In recent years, Anne has developed a strong reputation for her active participation in corporate and community art projects, as well as a passion for social media. Anne has written a beautiful piece on PEARLS titled “The Pearl in the Oyster: One Woman’s Battle with Preeclampsia” which you can read at www.fivemore.com.au. 5 Painting by Luke Scibberras ‘Sandhills Wilcannia’ 2014 oil on board Courtesy of Olsen Irwin Gallery 60 x 60cm Luke Sciberras is a leading landscape painter based in Hill End. Luke has had over 25 solo shows in the past 15 years. He was a finalist in this year’s Wynne Prize at the Art Gallery of NSW and has undertaken numerous residencies and artists expeditions with some of Australia’s leading artists including the ‘My Friend the Enemy’ Gallipoli expedition this year. Luke’s works are held in many private, public and corporate collections worldwide. As Sydney Morning Herald critic, John McDonald writes of Sciberras’ Hill End works, “While Sciberras’s paintings are always recognizable as landscapes, he simplifies forms, turns light and shadow into solid shapes. His works are not apocalyptic like Drysdale’s, they are lyrical, muted and understated. His paintings are not momentos of a vanished boom-town, but a celebration of a countryside returning to life.” Value $4000 PHOTOGRAPH by Mark Morffew ‘Barcelona I’ 2012, Mark Morffew 30x39” framed photograph Mark has made a name for himself as one of Australia’s most celebrated people photographers, however what most people don’t know is that Mark is an avid lifestyle and abstract photographer in his spare time. Throughout his world travels, Mark has amassed a collection of stunning unique images. This photo is from his Barcelona series and is among the first of Mark’s works to be released publicly. Value Priceless 6 -Royal Hotels Australia- Weekend for 2 at the Iconic Intercontinental Hotel Double Bay Not only is the InterContinental in Double Bay Sydney’s newest five-star hotel, it’s also the only one outside the CBD. Breathing life back into a building with an impressive hospitality heritage, the hotel opened in November 2014 in the heart of one of Sydney’s prettiest harbourside suburbs. The multi-million dollar refurbishment has retained some of the original features, including the Italian marble floors and brass plated lifts, but overall the property looks and feels brand new. There are splashes of flamboyance in the lobby: an opulent gilded sofa and some bold artworks, but otherwise it’s a safe, contemporary makeover in a soothing palate of greys and charcoals. There’s an all-day lounge bar (Stillery) and an in-house restaurant (Stockroom) but the hotel’s crowning glory is a Miami-style rooftop pool and bar with sweeping harbour views.

  • Trip to Australia March 4 to April 3, 2014
    TRIP TO AUSTRALIA MARCH 4 TO APRIL 3, 2014 We timed this trip so that we'd be in Australia at the beginning of their fall season, reasoning that had we come two months earlier we would have experienced some of the most brutal summer weather that the continent had ever known. Temperatures over 40°C (104°F) were common in the cities that we planned to visit: Sydney (in New South Wales), Melbourne* (in Victoria), and Adelaide (in South Australia); and _____________________________________________________________ *Melbourne, for example, had a high of 47°C (117°F) on January 21; and several cities in the interior regions of NSW, Vic, and SA had temperatures of about 50°C (122°F) during Decem ber-January. _______________________________________________________________ there were dangerous brush fires not far from populated areas. As it turned out, we were quite fortunate: typical daily highs were around 25°C (although Adelaide soared to 33°C several days after we left it) and there were only a couple of days of rain. In m y earlier travelogs, I paid tribute to m y wife for her brilliant planning of our journey. So it was this time as well. In the months leading up to our departure, we (i.e., Lee) did yeoman (yeowoman? yo, woman?) work in these areas: (1) deciding which regions of Australia to visit; (2) scouring web sites, in consultation with the travel agency Southern Crossings, for suitable lodging; (3) negotiating with Southern Crossings (with the assistance of Stefan Bisciglia of Specialty Cruise and Villas, a fam ily-run travel agency in Gig Harbor) concerning city and country tours, tickets to events, advice on sights, etc.; and (4) reading several web sites and travel books.

  • Department of Motor Transport, 1975-76
    ANNUAL REPORT COMMISSIONER FOR MOTOR TRANSPORT THE FRONT COVER depicts 10 years of building activity associated with the Department's policy of decentralisation which began in July, 1966. At that time the State was divided into six administrative regions to decentralise the Department's activities. Thirty-two new premises, including regional and district offices, motor registries and lorry checking stations, have been built since 1966 to improve service to the public and working conditions for staff. Pictured on the front cover are some of the buildings con­ structed during the 10 year period 1966-76. THE MAP BELOW shows the location of Departmental Offices. Those built since 1966 are ticked. THE PHOTOGRAPHS ON THE FRONTISPIECE show the new District Office and Motor Registry at Cammeray which opened for business on 19th January, 1976. Primarily the building will serve the public of the rapidly expanding lower north shore area. The of­ fice is fully air-conditioned and has large, attractively furnished areas for the public and staff and was sited on the block to provide maximum parking space in the paved yard. The building's comparatively low roof-line was designed so as not to obstruct the views of nearby residents. NEW SOUTH WALES The Hon. P.F. Cox. M.L.A.. Minister for Transport and Highways.

  • The Musical Ministry of Lilian Frost, Pitt Street Congregational Church Organist, 1895-1949
    Cultivating the Arts Page 263 CHAPTER 6 - THE MUSICAL MINISTRY OF LILIAN FROST, PITT STREET CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH ORGANIST, 1895-1949 Lilian Frost, Pitt Street Congregational Church organist from 1895 to 1949, died on 22 December 1953. Just over a year later, the Congregational Union of New South Wales pointed to the difficulty in acquiring quality organists to conduct 'public worship'. It discussed the importance of the role of the organist describing, in non-conformist manner, such instrumentalists as 'Ministers] of the Gospel'. During the latter half of Lilian Frost's outstanding musical service to the Church repeated references were made to her musical ministry. Both within and without the walls of the church she attracted a following. Conversely, she devoted much time and energy to the respective causes of both the secular and religious musical communities. Simultaneously seeking recognition as both a performer and minister, moving between the sacred and secular, from quiet Edwardian 'lady' to determined professional Lilian Frost's actions reveal a responsiveness to the forces of change that tie her story to those of other female cultural agents. The work of a variety of writers concerned with religious history, music history, cultural history and general Australian history reveal that a connection existed between women, music and conservative values. An Australian tendency to cling to nineteenth century British views of '[mjusic's social role', implied that through the promotion of 'high-art music' Australian women could act as guardians of both cultural values and national morality. Alternately, because music was linked to notions of cultivation and civilisation, religious observance, and conservative values, it was respectable and consequently suitable as a womanly occupation.

  • Urban Design in Central Sydney 1945–2002: Laissez-Faire and Discretionary Traditions in the Accidental City John Punter
    Progress in Planning 63 (2005) 11–160 www.elsevier.com/locate/pplann Urban design in central Sydney 1945–2002: Laissez-Faire and discretionary traditions in the accidental city John Punter School of City and Regional Planning, Cardiff University, Cardiff CF10 3WA, UK Abstract This paper explores the laissez faire and discretionary traditions adopted for development control in Central Sydney over the last half century. It focuses upon the design dimension of control, and the transition from a largely design agnostic system up until 1988, to the serious pursuit of design excellence by 2000. Six eras of design/development control are identified, consistent with particular market conditions of boom and bust, and with particular political regimes at State and City levels. The constant tensions between State Government and City Council, and the interventions of state advisory committees and development agencies, Tribunals and Courts are explored as the pursuit of design quality moved from being a perceived barrier to economic growth to a pre-requisite for global competitiveness in the pursuit of international investment and tourism. These tensions have given rise to the description of Central Sydney as ‘the Accidental City’. By contrast, the objective of current policy is to consistently achieve ‘the well-mannered and iconic’ in architecture and urban design. Beginning with the regulation of building height by the State in 1912, the Council’s development approval powers have been severely curtailed by State committees and development agencies, by two suspensions of the Council, and more recently (1989) by the establishment of a joint State- Council committee to assess major development applications.

  • Façade Cleaning of Sydney's Former General Post Office Kick-Starts Brand Conversion to the Fullerton Hotel Sydney
    Media release Façade cleaning of Sydney’s former General Post Office kick-starts brand conversion to The Fullerton Hotel Sydney Remediation project part of broader programme to connect locals with historic landmark SYDNEY, Australia—16 April 2019: In the lead up to the launch of The Fullerton Hotel Sydney in the former Sydney General Post Office (GPO)—the vision for which is to become the city’s luxury heritage hotel in the heart of the CBD—remediation and maintenance work on the façade of the historic landmark has commenced. Built on a grand scale and at huge expense, Australia’s first GPO building dominated the Sydney streetscape and skyline for decades. Constructed in two stages, beginning in 1866 and designed under the guidance of colonial architect James Barnet, the GPO was regarded as a building which would come to symbolise Sydney in the same way the Houses of Parliament in Westminster represent London and the Eiffel Tower, Paris. With its intricate stone work and carvings causing a public outcry when it was first launched, the GPO remained Sydney’s most well-known landmark since 1874 until the Sydney Harbour Bridge was erected in 1932. With extensive experience preserving historic buildings in The Fullerton Heritage precinct in Singapore, the Hotel’s future operator The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts is committed to the conservation of the Sydney GPO building for future generations. Cleaning its iconic façade is the first step of a broader remediation programme. “As custodians of heritage, we believe it’s imperative that significant historical buildings such as the GPO retain their heritage features.
