Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships Samstag
The Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships samstag ’95 The 1995 Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships samstag University of South Australia ’95 samstag Mehmet Adil Marika Borlase Catherine Brennan Kate Daw Ruth Fazakerley Susan Fereday Matthÿs Gerber Marcia Lochhead Sue Saxon Lucy Turner Megan Walch Foreword his publication witnesses the achievement of eleven artists who were Tawarded Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships, tenable for twelve-months of study overseas, commencing from 1995. These nine women and two men are beneficiaries of Gordon Samstag’s vision to level the playing field for Australian artists, whom he knew to be as good as their international peers, but restricted unreasonably by geographic isolation. Consequently, this third group of Samstag Scholars will soon be embarking on lengthy and enviable creative adventures in New York, Utrecht, London, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Glasgow and Dundee. Following the good news of their award, the preparations which “Samstagers” must make to secure their overseas study opportunity are, invariably, complex and taxing. For example, while under no obligation to enrol in formal degree courses, their project must nevertheless demonstrate a full commitment to studio practice under the bona fides of an appropriate institution. Negotiations for acceptance into a preferred institution can be arduous and slow. While concerned primarily with artistic development and enrichment, the Samstag experience is thus distinguished also by endeavour and Matthÿs GERBER self-reliance. Moreover, when confronted L'Origine du Monde #1 1992 oil on canvas directly by the formidable dimensions 200 x 300 of international contemporary art, scholarship recipients may discover, beneficially, that their own indigenous artistic character is distinct and viable. -

RAAF’s 90th Birthday The Royal Australian Air Force marked its 90th birthday with an annual commemorative service in Canberra and the addition of Battle Honours to the RAAF Memorial while there was a display of historic planes at the service's birthplace in Victoria. The Chief of Air Force, Air Marshal Mark Binskin AO used his address as an opportunity to re- member those that gave their lives in service to Australia over the last 90 years. The RAAF was formed on March 31, 1921, with Point Cook its sole base. "We have aeroplanes that date back to the 1930s," Air Commodore Ron Luke said at Point Cook. "When you look at the difference in technology between those aircraft and what we're operating today with Super Hornets and C-17 transports, it's really quite amazing”. The general public gathered to see the Roulette acrobat team perform and more than 60 aeroplanes, including Spitfires and Mustangs and Hudson bombers, 1930s vintage airliners, DC- 3s, plus an assortment of other aero- planes. While this was happening F/A-18 jets Air Marshal Mark Binskin AO lays a wreath at flew over Canberra, as people gathered the Canberra Ceremony at Anzac Parade to mark the anniver- sary. More squadrons have been formally added to the RAAF memorial, recognising those who served in the Philippines in 1944, the Malayan Peninsular and Ubon Thailand in the 1960s, and more recently East Timor and Iraq. Retired RAAF Squadron Leader Denis Macneall said he has fond memo- ries as a member of 75 Squadron in Malaysia. -
2008 10 Magazine
Anything But Average October 2008 VOL 26 EDITION 333 Official Publication of the P76 Owners Club of Victoria Inc. Editorial I can’t believe how quickly this year is passing by. There’s only about 10 weeks until Christmas and (all going well) 10 weeks until David and I will be visited by the stork. It’s all going really well for me so far - not too many complaints. We went to an ante- natal class recently which was really interesting. Next week we’re off to Queensland to visit my uncles farm in Miles. He’s a mad Jeep enthusiast and I’m sure we will have plenty of stories and photos to bring back. David and I held the annual Bathurst BBQ last weekend. I say BBQ, but this year we had a spit roast which went really well, although there was a very smoky start! It was a beautiful spring day which meant we could enjoy the race outside and take in a few rays. Overall it was a really great day but a real shame as not one P76 club member attended this year. Though we don’t usually get many members attending, in the past there have been enough to make it worthwhile to continue holding it as a club event. Unfortunately, I think this will be the last. The other event we attended this month was P’s on Tour (in Gippsland). John did a really great job organising this event, especially given the short notice and we had a fantastic time. Though it was disappointing that none of our members joined us for the drive to Maffra. -
