IN THE MUSEUM Displaying Australian art history: Dr Ewing and the Ewing Collection Cathleen Rosier (University of Melbourne) The history of Australia’s art history has traditionally been examined through the development of its literature, principally, the survey text. The relationship of the exhibition of art to this history is relatively understudied. This presentation aims to explore the display of works of art in the survey discourse through the University of Melbourne’s Ewing Collection. Gifted to the University in 1938 by Dr Samuel Arthur Ewing, the Collection consists of 56 works of art by Australian artists from 1862 to 1940. Acquired between 1908 and 1940, the Collection explores Australian landscape paintings, with select genre and figural works also included. Oil and watercolour paintings are featured, with several drawings, etchings and a plaster caste present. As a collector, Ewing favoured Australian and Australian-based male artists working in the Heidelberg style. Although the figural imagery present is predominately female, only two women artists are included, and Ewing eschews an indigenous presence from both the art and artists in the Collection.

  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

  • Getting Site-Specific at the Met

Photo by Stephanie Berger http://www.metmuseum.org/blogs/met-live-arts/2016/met-breuer-opening-day-performances-and-stockhausen-klang 1/6 4/4/2017 Getting Site-Specific at The Met | The Metropolitan Museum of Art The Met Breuer has been open just one week, and already several site-specific works have animated the iconic building on Madison Avenue at 75th Street. On the opening day, March 18, David Dorfman Dance led the way with an inspired performance created for the outdoor Sunken Garden. A buoyant work, the dancers commanded the space with arresting lifts that were creatively crafted using the building itself as support. Dorfman's choreography and the music by Ken Thomson and Friends was completely captivating, and offered a satisfying and unexpected intimacy—no small feat for such a large opening-day celebration. Audiences lined the Garden, windows, sidewalks—wherever there was a view—for each of the day's six performances. It is easy to romanticize The Met Breuer as an ideal location for site-specific live arts. The building boasts subtle details that continue to unfold and further reveal themselves, visit after visit. To see live arts staged with such beauty and nuance is an exciting sign of what's to come in future seasons.

The Anatol Kagan Collection includes material relating to the Russian-born émigré’s Melbourne practice in the 1940s and early 1950s, and his subsequent Sydney practice from the 1960s. His post-war domestic architecture can be directly compared with that of other émigré architects whose work is represented in the Archives, including Frederick Romberg (rda Newsletter #1 2008), Ernest Fooks (some of whose drawings and books were donated to rmit a number of years ago by Noemi Fooks) and Frederick Sterne (rda Newsletter #1 2008).

  • The Met Breuer Building Redesign & Restaurant
    The Met Breuer Building Redesign & Restaurant Location New York, New York Size 82,000 square feet Architect Beyer Blinder Belle Cost $11.5 million Services MEP/FP, Technology Design Completed 2016 Awards AIA New York Interiors Merit Marcel Breuer designed this iconic building in 1966 specifically to house the Whitney Museum of American Art’s extensive collection of twentieth and twenty-first century American artists. Located at Madison Avenue and 75th Street, the landmark closed for substantial renovations, and opened to the public again in March of 2016 under the auspices of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which now occupies the space under a long-term lease and has assumed its programming for the next eight years. The Met will display a portion of its modern and contemporary collections and programs within what is now called The Met Breuer. Working with the architect and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Kohler Ronan designed MEP/FP systems in support of the renovations to the unique building. Central to the project’s engineering scope was a much needed infrastructure upgrade within the existing building in order to meet the new programmatic needs of The Met. Functioning as The Met’s engineering consultant during the acquisition of the building allowed Kohler Ronan’s team to understand and prioritize the building’s needs for the duration of the lease. Enhancements included upgraded security and technology systems, electrical infrastructure improvements, and MEP design supporting a new restaurant, gallery, and office renovation.

  • Energy Benchmarking Results 2018
    New York City Municipal Government Energy Benchmarking Results 2018 September 2019 New York City Government Building Energy Benchmarking Results 2018 Overview The Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) submitted the revised 2010 ‐ 2018 benchmarking results for City government buildings to the Department of Finance (DOF) for publication on September 1, 2019 in compliance with Local Law 84 of 2009. Since 2009, DCAS has coordinated with City agencies to benchmark nearly 3,000 public buildings including libraries, police stations, firehouses, schools, colleges, courthouses, hospitals, community centers and government offices. The following report discloses energy performance metrics for each required City government building for calendar year 2018 as well as calendar year 2010 data as published in the original New York City Government Building Energy Benchmarking Results. The performance metrics included in the report are: Energy Star score, energy use intensity (EUI), and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity. The U.S. EPA Energy Star Portfolio Manager Tool calculates Energy Star scores for certain common property types. For properties ineligible for an Energy Star score, the report will indicate “Not Available.” Summary of Results In 2018, U.S. EPA updated ENERGY STAR score calculation methodology as well as related performance metrics for U.S. buildings to reflect the most recent market data. This update significantly changed the ENERGY STAR score for many property types presented in the New York City Government building portfolio and made the comparison with the first year of benchmarking unsustainable. The average ENERGY STAR score for 2018 for eligible City properties is 54.8, average Source EUI is 218.9 kBtu/ft², and average GHG Emissions Intensity is 8.9 kgCO2e/ft².

The chosen period (1992-2012) is only apparently arbitrary, since this is the period of major output of studies and research in the rapidly changing contemporary museum field. The 80s of the last century began with the affirmation of the schools of ‘museum studies’ in the Anglophone countries, as well as with the development of the Nouvelle Muséologie in France (consolidated in 1985 with the foundation of the Mouvement International pour la Nouvelle Muséologie-MINOM, as an ICOM affiliate).
