Home to a multilayered and complex community, a distinctive characteristic of the area is the contrasting socio economic backgrounds of its residents. The Juanita Nielsen Community Centre ( the Centre) is located on the lands of the Cadigal band of the “Eora people”, which was the name given to the coastal Aborigines around Sydney. This subject site was originally located within the swampy foreshore areas of Woolloomooloo Bay and was not developed until the land was reclaimed in 1861 with the formation of Cowper Wharf. The area of Woolloomooloo has been proclaimed a heritage conservation area and is historically significant as one of the earliest residential districts of Sydney. The Centre is housed in a former warehouse building of six stores which was constructed in 1888 and associated with the shipping trade of Cowper Bay Wharf and industry in the area. It was also historically associated with the Free Kindergarten and was the second site in Woolloomooloo used for this purpose. In July 1983, the Centre was opened by the Sydney City Council and named in honour of Juanita Nielsen - a publisher, urban conservationist and Woolloomooloo resident. A brief outline on the history and heritage of Woolloomooloo, the former uses of the site and biographical information about Juanita Nielsen have been included in Attachment C – Site History. A refurbishment of the Centre is currently underway and will provide significant contribution to the community and the public realm in Woolloomooloo. The building refurbishment works see the Centre increase its role as a multi-purpose inter-generational recreation centre with infrastructure to support expanded programs for over 55’s, meals for the elderly and people with disabilities, children’s services (Outside of School Hours Care for children aged 5 to 12 years) with dedicated and compliant outdoor play space, a gym and increased community hire spaces. The design by Neeson Murcutt Architects re-interprets the heritage building by revealing and enhancing the original building fabric. The layout improves accessibility, street activation, provisions for natural light and maximises community use. The City consulted with local community members regarding the Centre Upgrade. Through the consultation process requests were made for the inclusion of public art in this project 6 a r m e Juanita Nielsen Community Centre, Refurbishment Works in Progress t r e e The site in Woolloomooloo is bounded by Dowling, Nicholson, Wilson and Maclean Streets C o w p e r W h Nicholson Street Nicholson a r f Bland Street Bland Wilson Street Wilson R o a d w a y Dowling Street Pring Street Nesbitt St Nesbitt Mcelhone Street Harnett St Brougham Street McElhone Stairs McElhone Horderns Place Victoria Street Challis Avenue Challis Tusculum Lane Tusculum Street Manning St 7 Artist Brief Neeson Murcutt Architects in consultation with the Project Delivery Team and the City’s Public Art Advisory Panel have made the recommendation for an innovative, site specific, contemporary and operable artwork curtain to be incorporated into the building design of the Juanita Nielsen Community Hall (the Hall). This project offers artists an opportunity to integrate high quality, permanent, public art into the building refurbishment. The artwork curtain will be a focal point of the Hall, add a unique layer of texture and act as a visual screen. There are mirrors lining the wall behind the curtain that will require covering when not in use (refer Attachment A - Architectural Drawings) The large, retractable artwork curtain (3 x 10m) is proposed to incorporate but is not limited to fabric, woven and non-woven textile applications, natural or synthetic materials, lightweight alloys and fabricated materials, printed applications, embroidery, pieced or stitched, dyed textiles or other innovative materials and applications. As the artwork curtain should be robust and durable enough to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use the City may consider (if required and in consultation with the artist) reproducing the artwork as a digitally printed curtain so the curtain can be easily renewed. However, subject to the artwork satisfying functional requirements the final

    The Symbolism of Political and Social Change in Australia 1965 - 1975

    THE SYMBOLISM OF POLITICAL AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN AUSTRALIA 1965 - 1975 Gabrielle Johnstone Master of Arts (Hons.) University of New South Wales. 1984. I hereby certify that the wD�k contained in this thesis has not been submitted for a higher degree to any other university or institution. I hereby declare that this is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree of diploma of a University or other Institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of this thesis . Gabrielle Johnstone ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Associate Professor Donald Horne for his valued guidance and experience, given generously, during the preparation of this thesis. SUHMARY In this thesis an attempt was made to examine the period 1965-1975, in Australia, in terms of the symbolic politics of social change in certain fields of "protest", viz the anti­ Vietnam movements, women's movements, enviromental movements, Aboriginal movements, "permissiveness" movements and (to a lesser extent) "ethnic consciousness" movements. There was a concern with both the instrumental and the expressive functions of these forms of protest. Particular reliance was placed on some of the concepts developed by Kenneth Burke, Hugh Dalziel Duncan, Orrin.E.Klapp, Murray Edelman, James Combs and Michael Mansfield. These concepts were used in an examination of pamphlets, petitions, editorials, letters to the editor of newspapers and magazines, books, badges, stickers, posters and contemporary accounts of the activities pursued by the movements referred to.
