PRESIDENT’S 

REPORT 

DIRECTOR’S 

REPORT 

Again, it is my pleasure on behalf 

of the Board of Management to thank 

our membership for continued wonderful 

support of the Gallery. The exhibition 

program and associated public programs 

were highly attended and we are most 

appreciative of your high regard 

of the Gallery. 

No doubt the highlights of the year were 

the Cecil Beaton: Portraits and Designs for 

a Modern World: Charles Rennie Mackintosh 

exhibitions. This was evidenced by record 

attendance over the three month period 

of the exhibitions. I congratulate our 

Director and staff for their wonderful 

leadership of these projects. As well, 

I thank our fine group of loyal volunteers 

for their magnificent assistance throughout 

the exhibition. It was heartening to read 

and see all of the publicity the exhibitions 

generated. A very pleasing aspect of both 

exhibitions was the strengthening of links 

between Bendigo Art Gallery and the 

National Portrait Gallery of London 

and the Glasgow Museum. 

Robert Jacks continued to support the 

Gallery with the Robert Jacks Drawing 

Prize which is now in its fifth year. 

I congratulate the 2005 winner 

Michael Zavros. 

The Board continues to seek funding 

and sponsorship to assist the Gallery 

with its operation and various programs. 

La Trobe University continues to be 

an important supporter and on behalf 

of the Board I thank them for their 

ongoing financial support. The Sidney 

Myer fund very generously gifted 

a signification donation towards our 

exhibition program. I also acknowledge 

the support of The Advertiser, Southern 

Cross Ten, and Elgee Park Wines. 

Bendigo Art Gallery is indeed fortunate 

to be the recipient of significant gifts 

throughout the course of the year. 

On behalf of the Board it is my pleasure 

to thank Mr Baillieu Myer AC and Mrs 

Sarah Myer, Mr Rod Fyffe, Justice Paul 

Guest, Dr and Mrs Hadley, Mrs Helen 

Bruinier and family. I also acknowledge 

the wonderful support from the Helen 

Macpherson Smith Trust. As well, 

a number of donors who wished to remain 

anonymous have made very significant 

contributions to the Gallery. I am very 

pleased that our donors regularly visit the 

Gallery and maintain a strong connection. 

Throughout the course of the year 

the Gallery was pleased to host visits 

from the Honourable Mary Delahunty, 

Victorian Minister for the Arts, the 

Rt Hon Helen Liddell UK High 

Commissioner to Australia, Mrs Patricia 

Ferguson, Scottish Minister for Culture 

and Tourism, the Rt Hon Liz Cameron, 

Lord Provost of Glasgow, the German 

Consul General, Thomas Kessler 

and Mrs Kessler. 

My thanks to all of the volunteers, 

Margaret Bowden President of the Friends 

of Bendigo Art Gallery, and the Friends 

Committee, Senior Guide, Lyn Byrne 

and the Guides for their generous support 

of the Gallery. 

I thank my fellow Board members 

for their strong support of the Gallery 

and acknowledge their commitment, 

enterprise and expertise. I am indebted 

to the exceptional work of the staff under 

the fine leadership of Karen Quinlan, 

Director Bendigo Art Gallery. 

Finally, on behalf of all involved in 

the Gallery I am thankful for the ongoing 

partnership with the City of Greater 

Bendigo. Together, we will continue 

to grow Bendigo Art Gallery’s ever 

evolving place within the Arts sector. 

John E Higgs 

Another successful year has passed and 

I am delighted to say that we have record 

attendance figures of 89,103 to report. 

The exhibition Cecil Beaton: Portraits 

was certainly a highlight in the calendar. 

At the same time Designs for a Modern 

World: Charles Rennie Mackintosh ensured 

that attendances over the summer period 

amounted to 35,000. 

New works of art collected over 

the last financial year have been significant 

and many will be displayed in the 

exhibition Decade which celebrates ten 

years of collecting. 2006 marks the 10th 

anniversary since Bendigo Art Gallery’s 

Board of Management entered into 

an agreement with the City of Greater 

Bendigo who now own and operate 

this institution, a relationship that can 

be described as healthy and successful. 

Staff changes in the last financial year 

have seen Noel Hourigan join the 

technical team, and with Senior Curator 

Tracy Cooper-Lavery on maternity 

leave, Leanne Fitzgibbon was appointed 

Acting Senior Curator, and Tansy 

Curtin appointed Curator. The growth 

in the technical department has allowed 

collection management to stride forward 

with a number of ongoing projects 

including database enhancement, image 

capture, and further implementation 

of the location system. 

The education program has returned 

to normal with the appointment of 

Margot Feast who replaced Peter Hughes 

midway through the financial year. 

Together with the new after school art 

teacher Joy Tatt, and Helen Attrill, our 

education department has offered a range 

of programs and encouraged new students 

to partake in the weekly sessions and the 

school holiday workshops. 

I thank my staff for another successful 

year. The challenges we faced throughout 

the Cecil Beaton: Portraits will be revisited 

later this year when we open The World’s 

Most Photographed. I acknowledge the 

flexibility and preparedness of staff to 

embrace the varying challenges associated 

with exhibitions of this nature. 

I would like to highlight the great work 

of our volunteers including Margaret 

Bowden and the Friends of Bendigo Art 

Gallery, whose participation numbers 

have grown remarkably over the past 

year. Likewise I acknowledge the work 

of our Gallery guides led by Senior Guide, 

Lyn Byrne. The daily tours are enjoyed 

by many of our Gallery visitors and this 

is a wonderful support for our full-time 

staff. The highly motivated network of 

volunteers has given the Gallery many 

hours of time and we are very appreciative 

of their efforts. 

I acknowledge the contribution of our 

donors, Rod Fyffe, Fred Cress, Keith 

and Heather Peake, The Schellenberger 

Collection, Steig Persson, Robert Juniper 

and an anonymous donor. I also thank 

our sponsors for their generous support 

throughout 2005-2006; La Trobe University 

(Major Sponsors), The Advertiser and 

Southern Cross Ten (Media Sponsors), 

and Elgee Park Wines. 

We welcomed new Café operators Renzo 

and Julia Panozzo, who have injected new 

vitality into the Café and this is of direct 

benefit to the Gallery experience. I highly 

recommend this team who offer great 

food, wine and excellent customer service. 

Finally, I extend my thanks to our 

President, John Higgs and the Board 

of Management for their ongoing 

support and exceptional governance. 

I acknowledge my colleagues at the 

City of Greater Bendigo who contribute 

in many ways in order to make the 

Gallery what it is — a regional success.

CURATORIAL 

REPORT 

During 2005–2006 Bendigo Art Gallery 

continued its commitment to presenting 

a diverse and dynamic exhibition program 

and schedule of events. In addition to 

participating in a number of national touring 

exhibitions, the Gallery presented several 

self-initiated projects and exhibitions, 

and undertook the project management 

of two international exhibitions. Overall, 

the Gallery’s program included 15 

exhibitions in total, 11 of which were 

initiated by the Gallery. 

A highlight early in the financial year 

was the exhibition The End of the Rainbow, 

which delved into the Gallery’s own 

collection to illuminate Victoria’s golden 

past with a selection of works on paper 

and sculpture that recorded the impact 

of the gold rush on the development 

of Bendigo. A significant inclusion in 

the exhibition was the recent acquisition, 

George Rowe’s The End of the Rainbow, 

Golden Square, executed in 1857 and 

acquired through the Newson Bequest 

Fund. Drawings, lithographs, engravings, 

watercolours and photographs by artists 

such as Alexander Fox, ST Gill, Charles 

Travers Mackin, Nicholas Chevalier, John 

Northcote and Nicholas Caire were also 

included in this exhibition which was of 

considerable interest to locals and visitors 

alike. There continues to be great interest 

in the historical works in the Gallery’s 

collection, with such exhibitions sparking 

future research and exhibition ideas. 

Other major exhibitions which were 

drawn from the Gallery’s own collection 

were Larger Than Life, an exhibition 

of oversized works which included artists 

such as Andrew Browne, Christopher 

Langton, Richard Larter, Mike Parr 

and Patricia Piccinini, Tainted Love: 

Contemporary developments in landscape 

focussing on the works of Dale Frank, 

Rosemary Laing, Chris Langlois, Janet 

Laurence and John Wolseley, and Twentieth 

Century, a comprehensive overview 

of artworks from 1900–1999. Twentieth 

Century provided the first opportunity 

for the Gallery to display the epic work, 

Journey of the Sun, by locally based artist 

Leonard French. The work was presented 

to Bendigo Art Gallery in 2003 by 

Commonwealth Custodial Services under 

the Cultural Gifts Program. This Federal 

Government initiative encourages gifts 

of significant cultural items to public 

art galleries, museums and libraries 

by offering donors a tax deduction 

for the market value of their gifts. Some 

of the Gallery’s key works have been 

gifted through this scheme. The work was 

commissioned in 1980 for the State Bank 

Centre, Melbourne (corner of Elizabeth 

and Bourke Streets) and was displayed 

above the tellers’ desk until early 2004. 

To coincide with Larger Than Life, 

the Gallery invited Melbourne based 

South African artist Christopher Langton 

to install a giant inflatable work on the 

Gallery façade. Crouching threateningly 

above the entrance, the enormous redback 

spider measuring some six metres in 

diameter created quite a stir amongst 

visitors and passers-by. The Gallery is most 

grateful to Christopher and his assistant 

Erin O’Callaghan for their support 

in installing this work. 

During the summer period the Gallery 

brought to Australia the international 

touring exhibition Cecil Beaton: Portraits, 

from the National Portrait Gallery, 

London. Such a significant exhibition 

placed considerable demands on the 

curatorial and technical staff, however the 

overwhelming response to the exhibition 

from the public certainly made all efforts 

worthwhile. The exhibition was presented 

for an extended period, from early 

December 2005 through to the end 

of March 2006, and so enabled the Gallery 

to schedule a considerable number of 

special programs and events for members. 

Included in the special events were 

introductory tours throughout the week, 

a lecture program on the life and work 

of Cecil Beaton by Julie Millowick, Senior 

Lecturer, Visual Arts & Design, Lecturer 

in Charge of Photojournalism, La Trobe 

University, Bendigo., and a film screening 

at the Star Cinema of My Fair Lady 

with high tea served afterwards, which 

proved extremely popular. The Gallery 

also presented ‘Beaton After Hours’, a 

lecture program which included guest 

speakers such as Montalbetti + Campbell, 

Canon AIPP Australian Advertising 

Photographers of the Year 2005, Paola Di 

Trocchio, Assistant Curator International 

Fashion & Textiles, National Gallery of 

Victoria, and Craig Kendal, of Naked Eye 

Astronomy who, drawing inspiration from 

the star portraits on display, took visitors 

on a parallel journey getting to know the 

stars of the night sky. These and other 

programs presented by the Gallery were 

designed to complement the exhibition 

and to continue to build on the Gallery’s 

standing as a venue for education, 

enjoyment and appreciation of the arts. 

To coincide with the Commonwealth 

Games in March 2006, Bendigo Art 

Gallery was the exclusive venue for 

the first Australian exhibition to feature 

international works by the acclaimed 

Scottish designer Charles Rennie 

Mackintosh. Designs for a Modern World 

was presented in partnership with 

Glasgow Museums, Scotland, and included 

international works on loan from the 

collection of Glasgow Museums and the 

National Trust for Scotland, together with 

selected works from Australian galleries 

and a private lender. The exhibition 

provided a rare opportunity for visitors 

to view works from Australian collections 

alongside significant loans from overseas, 

and included works by Charles Rennie 

Mackintosh and Margaret and Frances 

Macdonald. The exhibition developed 

from the proposed single loan of the 

most impressive Hill House writing 

desk, designed by Mackintosh in 1904 

and valued at more than £1 million. 

The Gallery subsequently arranged for 

additional loans to support this iconic 

work of 20th century design. A short film 

produced by the Glasgow Museum was 

projected in the space allowing visitors 

to journey through Mackintosh designed 

homes, and guest curator Alison Brown 

from Glasgow provided a number 

of introductory lectures on the Glasgow 

style. The Gallery appreciated the support 

provided by Festival Melbourne in 

bringing the exhibition to Bendigo, 

and welcomed the opportunity to form 

a partnership with Glasgow Museums. 

The Gallery’s commitment to local content 

in its exhibition program continued, 

with the display of an exclusive exhibition 

of the recent work of locally based artist 

Wendy Stavrianos. A Metaphysical Edge 

was complemented by a number of talks 

by the artist in addition to workshops 

for student groups. Gallery staff were 

pleased to have the opportunity to work 

closely with Wendy, and to produce the 

exhibition catalogue which accompanied 

the exhibition. 

Another exhibition of local significance 

was In the Spotlight: Theatre Design by Steven 

Butler. Originally from Bendigo, Butler 

studied at NIDA in Sydney, from which 

he graduated in 2004. He represented 

NIDA at the Prague Quadrennial Design 

Exhibition in 2004, and has designed 

for various productions. The exhibition 

investigated the design process from initial 

concepts and preliminary drawings 

for costumes and characters to complex 

three-dimensional models of stage sets. 

Visitors relished the opportunity to step 

behind the scenes of theatre production 

through this exhibition which was 

displayed in the Sidney Myer Work 

on Paper Gallery. 

The Gallery was pleased to provide 

the first opportunity for an Australian 

audience to view the work, Salad Days 

by Ricky Swallow, on loan from the 

National Gallery of Victoria through 

the Victorian Foundation for Living 

Australian Artists (VFLAA). The work 

was unveiled on 19 April 2006 by the 

Minister for the Arts, Mary Delahunty. 

The work, from Ricky Swallow’s Venice 

Biennale exhibition, was acquired through 

the $10 million fund established by 

the Victorian Government, in partnership 

with the NGV, to purchase works 

by contemporary Australian artists. 

The Gallery also supported numerous 

exhibitions both nationally and 

internationally by providing works 

on loan from its collection. Two 

significant works, Homeless by Thomas 

Kennington and A Primrose from England 

by Edward Hopley, were loaned 

to the National Gallery of Victoria 

for its blockbuster exhibition Exiles 

and Emigrants: Epic Journeys to Australia 

in the Victorian Era. Alexandra Fountain 

and Monsteria were selected for inclusion 

in a retrospective exhibition presented 

by the Art Gallery of New South Wales; 

Margaret Preston: Art and Life, and joining 

the National Gallery of Australia’s 

travelling exhibition, Grace Cossington 

Smith: A Retrospective Exhibition, was the 

Gallery’s own Door into the Garden. At 

an international level, Bendigo’s 2003 

acquisition The Young Family travelled 

to New Zealand’s City Gallery Wellington 

to be included in the exhibition Patricia 

Piccinini — In Another Life. The exhibition 

was Wellington’s contribution to the 

New Zealand International Arts Festival. 

Bendigo Art Gallery was pleased to be 

able to support these and other exhibitions 

through the loans provided 

We gratefully acknowledge the continued 

efforts of our dedicated volunteers 

throughout the year for both curatorial 

and program support. The generous 

contribution of the Friends, Guides and 

security volunteers is beyond value and 

much appreciated. It is through their 

assistance that we have been able to 

deliver the breadth and diversity of 

exciting exhibitions and programs during 

2005–2006. We look forward to facing 

fresh challenges together in the year 

to come.

EDUCATION 

REPORT 

FRIENDS’ 

REPORT 

2005–2006 saw the Education Program 

continue to progress with a range 

of rich student learning programs, 

after school art classes, holiday workshops 

and Professional Learning Programs 

for teachers. Last year we farewelled 

Peter Hughes, who returned to full-time 

teaching at Catholic College Bendigo 

after more than a year in the position. 

Peter contributed great enthusiasm 

to the Education Program and introduced 

a range of community programs and 

activities for younger students in addition 

to being a familiar and friendly face in 

the Gallery. Peter will also be remembered 

for successfully coordinating the Just for 

Kids event on Sunday 21st August, 2005. 

During the second semester of 2005, 

we introduced Paula Scoble to the after 

school art classes and holiday programs. 

An energetic Diploma of Education 

student, Paula ably managed both 

programs. Paula was successful in gaining 

part-time employment at Golden Square 

Secondary College for 2006 and we now 

welcome both Paula and Peter to the 

Gallery as dedicated visiting teachers 

instead. The after school art classes 

and holiday activity participants were 

then introduced to the friendly face 

of Pru Stone in early 2006, before a 

permanent replacement was appointed. 

We were pleased to introduce Joy Tatt, 

an artist and experienced instructor, 

who brought a strong foundation of 

drawing skills to the after school art 

classes program. 

At the end of 2005, the funding for the 

current round of the Strategic Partnerships 

Program, under which Helen Attrill 

was employed, ended. Under the new 

requirement of funding being based 

around specific programs, the Gallery was 

fortunate to receive funding to commence 

two projects over the next triennium. 

Helen Attrill continued as education 

officer to implement the projects 

Galleries Unearthed and The Language 

of Photography. This has involved 

designing and presenting student and 

teacher programs, producing curriculum 

materials and addressing the new learning 

outcomes being implemented statewide, 

including Victorian Essential Learning 

Standards, Victorian Certificate 

of Education and Principles of Learning 

and Teaching. 

Recently the Gallery appointed Margot 

Feast to the education department. 

Margot has a diverse teaching background 

with art teaching experience in both city 

and country schools, at her own art based 

business and in an art school in China. 

Margot has also experienced working 

creatively with students with special needs 

and Indigenous students. One of the 

highlights of her career was working with 

young Tiwi students in Milakapiti 

in the Tiwi Islands. Margot has been 

a welcome addition to the Gallery 

and has quickly adapted to the needs 

of our education audiences. 

The past year has been an extremely 

busy and successful one for the Friends. 

In November 2005, thanks to the 

seven garden owners who opened their 

gardens for Private Gardens, we held 

our most profitable garden tour to date. 

In March 2006 we conducted a wine 

and cheese tasting evening in the gardens 

of Bishopscourt. Together with the 

Christmas/Easter raffle, these functions 

provided funds to allow the Friends 

to purchase 12 new Thonet chairs needed 

by the Gallery. 

In addition, the Friends have instituted 

a bursary for a Year 12 student at each 

of the three Bendigo secondary colleges; 

Bendigo Senior Secondary College, 

Catholic College Bendigo and Girton 

Grammar School. The bursary will be 

paid at the end of Year 11 for use by the 

students in Year 12. The initial bursaries 

will be paid in 2006. 

As well our usual practical support 

with mail outs, security and supervision, 

the Friends this year provided ‘High Tea’ 

for the screening of My Fair Lady at 

the Star Cinema, an event which was 

part of the Cecil Beaton: Portraits exhibition 

program. This was greatly enjoyed 

by patrons and Friends. 

In 2005–2006 the Board of Management 

of Bendigo Art Gallery covered the cost 

of buses for the Friends, Gallery Guides 

and volunteers to visit major exhibitions 

at the National Gallery of Victoria. 

In 2005 we visited the Dutch Masters, 

and in 2006 the Pissarro exhibition. 

Both trips were greatly enjoyed and 

much appreciated. 

The number of Gallery members who 

assist the Friends with various activities 

continues to grow, and the group also 

enjoys a variety of social activities. 

The Friends’ Mini Tour program is now 

an integral part of the Gallery’s annual 

program. The Friends greatly appreciate 

the strong support received from local 

artists. In 2006 we used the lecture theatre 

at the La Trobe University Visual Arts 

Centre on View Street on a number of 

occasions. For this we thank the gallery’s 

curator, Carolyn Dew. 

Gallery staff continue to provide 

the Friends with invaluable support. 

I would like to take this opportunity 

to thank Registrar Jacqui Woolf, and 

technical staff Neil Godfrey and Noel 

Hourigan for their practical assistance 

with Mini Tours and other functions, 

the curatorial staff Tracy Cooper-Lavery, 

Leanne Fitzgibbon and Tansy Curtin 

for the organisation of speakers for 

the Mini Tour program, receptionist 

Carolyn McMillan who is an enthusiastic 

promoter of the Friends’ activities, 

and director Karen Quinlan for her 

ongoing support. 

Finally, I would like to express my 

appreciation for the work of the executive, 

Vice President Marga McEvoy, Secretary 

Betty Stuart, and Treasurer Annie Clark, 

the Committee and all the volunteers 

whose company makes all our activities 

most enjoyable social occasions.

GUIDES’ 

REPORT 

EXHIBITION 

SUMMARIES 

This year commenced with a relaxed 

lunch in the garden of my home, away 

from the usual formality of monthly 

meetings, enabling guides to form ongoing 

friendships with like-minded people. 

The Class of 2006, comprising 16 new 

trainees, was also welcomed giving them 

the opportunity to get to know the Guides. 

Special thanks must go to Glenys Anthony 

and Merle Hall for their outstanding 

contribution in working with the 

enthusiastic group of new trainees. 

With such a large intake this year, 

a handful of dedicated Guides have 

shared their expertise in relation 

to particular aspects of the collection 

to assist with training. 

Ongoing education for established Guides 

is essential at Bendigo Art Gallery, with its 

growing collection focussing on Australian 

contemporary works. We enjoy the 

challenge this development demands and 

appreciate the support provided by Gallery 

staff in familiarising us with exciting new 

arrivals. Old favourites are revisited, when 

time permits, at the conclusion of monthly 

meetings, as individual Guides provide 

short presentations of their choice. Research 

papers given by Guides are a regular feature 

and this year showcased John Percival, 

Albert Tucker, Grace Cossington Smith 

and Russell Drysdale, to name a few. With 

the help of Christopher Willson, Guides 

are now using PowerPoint technology 

and enjoy the extra dimension this brings 

to our presentations. An excellent paper 

exploring the Boyd family dynasty was 

most informative and entertaining. 

We all enjoyed Karen Quinlan’s account of 

her whirlwind visit to the Venice Biennale, 

which provided a fascinating insight into 

the international art world. We also enjoyed 

having artist Denis Chapman speak to the 

Guides about his current practice and his 

work in our collection, which will better 

enable the Guides when discussing his work 

with the public. 

Our roster coordinator plays an important 

role in ensuring the availability of a daily 

tour. Working with Gallery staff, we aim 

to provide the best possible experience 

for visitors. We welcome the innovation 

of a laser pointer to assist with explaining 

artworks. Our diary records indicate 

we have had local and interstate visitors, 

as well as international visitors from 

America, South Africa, Canada, Europe 

and New Zealand in the past year. While 

not all visitors opt for a guided tour, 

it is always an enjoyable encounter 

to speak with them and hear their 

enthusiastic comments, as invariably they 

are impressed by the Gallery’s collection. 

The Designs for a Modern World: Charles 

Rennie Mackintosh and Cecil Beaton: 

Portraits exhibitions, coinciding with 

the Commonwealth Games, involved 

Guides giving special introductory tours 

and also assisting with security and ticket 

collection. During the year a variety of 

community groups and schools requested 

special tours. Although this necessitates 

quite a good deal of preparation, 

the small team of Guides who provide 

this service enjoy the experience. Children 

in particular are very responsive and with 

their natural creative ability are quick 

to grasp an understanding of the art 

presented to them. As Picasso said ‘Every 

child is an artist. The problem is how 

to remain an artist once he grows up.’ 

Thank you to Margaret Bowden, President 

of the Friends, who organised bus trips 

to the National Gallery of Victoria to view 

the Dutch Masters as well as the Pissarro 

exhibitions. The Guides also enjoyed a trip 

to the Castlemaine Gallery where the 

Director, Peter Perry, conducted a tour 

of the collection, followed by an introduction 

by Curator Kirsten McKay to the Sybil Craig 

exhibition. We thank them for their warm 

hospitality. Our plans for the future include 

an excursion to the recently re-opened and 

refurbished Heide Gallery, as well as a visit 

to Coliban Garden in Lauriston. 

It has been my pleasure to be associated 

with Bendigo Art Gallery this year as 

Senior Guide. I wish to thank the great 

team support, which will no doubt ensure 

that 2006–2007 will be another successful 

year of guiding.

Senior Guide 

Holy Holy Holy 

A Flinders University Art Museum 

Touring Exhibition 

4 June – 10 July 

Holy Holy Holy focused on the enduring 

influence of Christianity on Australian 

Aboriginal people through contemporary 

visual art, contextualised by historical 

material. In this exhibition 13 artists 

explored both the positive and the 

negative aspects of the influence of 

Christianity. Each artist has a unique 

perspective on the way that Christianity 

impacted on Aboriginal life and culture. 

Artists represented include Ian W Abdulla, 

James Cochran, Nici Cumpston, Julie 

Dowling, Jarinyanu David Downs, Irene 

Mbitjana Entata, Christine McCormack, 

Tjangika Wukula (Linda Syddick) 

Napaltjarri, Trevor Nickolls, Michael 

Riley, Darren Siwes, Alan Tucker 

and Harry J Wedge. 

The End of the Rainbow 

4 June – 14 September 

This exhibition delved into Victoria’s 

golden past with a selection of work 

from the Gallery’s permanent collection. 

Featuring works on paper and sculpture 

that recorded the impact of the gold rush 

on the development of Bendigo, the 

exhibition included the recent acquisition, 

George Rowe’s The End of the Rainbow, 

Golden Square, executed in 1857. The 

End of the Rainbow included drawings, 

lithographs, engravings, watercolours and 

photographs by artists such as Alexander 

Fox, ST Gill, Charles Travers Mackin, 

Nicholas Chevalier, John Northcote and 

Nicholas Caire. Of the sculptures included 

in the exhibition, the Original Model for the 

Gold Jubilee Memorial Statue, Bendigo 

was a feature, the completed statue being 

situated on Pall Mall. 

Twentieth Century 

4 June – 14 September 

A major exhibition from the permanent 

collection spanning all of the Gallery’s 

temporary exhibition spaces, Twentieth 

Century was a comprehensive overview 

of artworks from 1900–1999 and included 

selected paintings, sculptures, work 

on paper and ceramics rarely seen on 

permanent display. 

A highlight of the display was the first 

viewing of the epic work Journey of the 

Sun by Leonard French. The work was 

presented to Bendigo Art Gallery in 2003 

by Commonwealth Custodial Services 

under the Cultural Gifts Program. 

Measuring more than 11 metres in length, 

Journey of the Sun depicts literally the 

sun’s journey through a landscape of the 

seasons. Reading the work from left to 

right the spring landscape features fish 

swimming, birds rising from the earth 

through vines, flowers and trees towards 

the sun and a rainbow. 

A Metaphysical Edge 

Wendy Stavrianos 

A Bendigo Art Gallery Exhibition 

24 September – 30 October 

Wendy Stavrianos is a locally based 

Australian artist who has maintained 

her distinctive vision since her first solo 

exhibition in 1967 at Princes Hill Gallery 

in Melbourne. In 2005 A Metaphysical 

Edge presented the artist’s recent work 

accompanied by earlier related images 

that reinforced the artist’s use of 

symbolism, metaphor and the human 

presence within the landscape. 

Since 1993 Stavrianos has paid homage 

to Jean François Millet ‘s celebrated 

work The Gleaners (1857) to convey 

her environmental concerns. Stavrianos 

states her images are ‘holding onto what 

is disappearing, what is in the process 

of being lost to us all and to future 

generations.’ The paintings from her 

recent series Silent Fields -The Gatherer 

are metaphysical spaces for celebration 

and contemplation. 

In the Spotlight: Theatre design 

by Steven Butler 



This exhibition examined the creative 

process of theatre design, allowing 

visitors to step behind the scenes of 

stage production through the recent 

work of Steven Butler. Originally from 

Bendigo, Steven Butler’s fascination with 

costume design led to further studies 

at the National Institute of Dramatic 

Arts (NIDA) Sydney. The exhibition 

investigated the design process from initial 

concepts and drawings for costumes and 

characters to complex three-dimensional 

models of actual stage sets for theatre 

productions. 

Robert Jacks Drawing Prize 


5 – 27 November 

In its fourth year, the Roberts Jacks Drawing 

Prize again highlighted contemporary 

drawing practice in Australia. Renowned 

artist Robert Jacks generously provided 

the first prize of $5,000. The prize attracted 

entries from leading and emerging artists 

across Australia. The winner of the 2005 

prize was Michael Zavros, a Queensland 

based artist. 

Robert Jacks is recognised as one of 

Australia’s most significant and accomplished 

abstract artists. Born in Melbourne in 1943, 

Jacks trained in sculpture at Prahran TAFE 

and painting at RMIT. He has held more 

18 19

than 50 solo exhibitions throughout this 

career and been included in numerous group 

exhibitions. Having lived and exhibited in 

New York and Canada from 1969-1978, Jacks 

now lives and works in central Victoria. 

My Country 

Abstract Interpretations 

of the Australian Landscape 

From the La Trobe University Art Collection 

29 October – 30 November 

My Country brought together the work 

of artists whose careers span a period 

of more than forty years. These include 

revolutionaries, like Fred Williams, 

to the more contemporary, such as Judy 

Holding. The artists’ aims are to reflect 

their response to the environment, 

while at the same time capturing the 

‘essence’ of the Australian landscape. 

The exhibition offered a concise overview 

of a continuing genre central to Australian 

art, and presented uniquely different 

views, interpretations and processes 

towards landscape painting. 

Cecil Beaton: Portraits 

A National Portrait Gallery 

Exhibition, London 

10 December – 26 March 

Sir Cecil Beaton was one of the most 

inventive and outstanding portrait 

photographers of the twentieth century, 

renowned for his images of elegance, 

style and glamour. 

Celebrating the centenary of his birth 

in 1904, Cecil Beaton: Portraits brought 

together more than 150 portraits from 

the five remarkable decades of Beaton’s 

career. His subjects from the worlds of 

fashion, art and celebrity included Greta 

Garbo, Coco Chanel, Marilyn Monroe, 

Marlon Brando, David Hockney, Twiggy 

and Andy Warhol. From the Sitwells in 

the 1920s to the Rolling Stones in the late 

1960s, definitive portraits of twentieth 

century celebrities were shown alongside 

more sombre works from Beaton’s time as 

a war photographer. Bendigo Art Gallery 

was pleased to be one of only two venues 

in Australia to host this exhibition. 

On Loan, Private Collection 


10 December – 26 March 

Bendigo Art Gallery presented an 

important collection of works by some 

of Australia’s key artists of the latter 

20th century from a private collection 

in Melbourne. Following the exhibition, 

these works were interspersed throughout 

the Gallery’s permanent collection display 

on long-term loan. Artists include Brett 

Whiteley, Ian Fairweather, Russell 

Drysdale, Arthur Boyd, John Perceval, 

Ralph Balson, Godfrey Miller and 

Fred Williams. 

Designs for a Modern World 

Charles Rennie Mackintosh 

Presented in partnership with Glasgow 

Museums, Scotland 

4 February – 9 April 

Bendigo Art Gallery was the exclusive 

Australian venue for an exhibition 

featuring the work of acclaimed Scottish 

designer, Charles Rennie Mackintosh. 

The exhibition included international 

works on loan from the collection of 

Glasgow Museums, Scotland, together 

with a select number of loans from public 

and private collections within Australia. 

A highlight of the exhibition was the 

magnificent ‘Hill House’ writing desk 

designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh 

in 1904. Mackintosh is one of the most 

celebrated designers and architects of 

his generation, taking inspiration from 

Scottish traditions and blending this with 

the flourish of Art Nouveau and simple 

Japanese forms. 

Made from ebonised oak with mother 

of pearl, The Hill House desk was recently 

purchased by the Glasgow Museums and the 

National Trust for Scotland for just under 

£1 million, making it the world’s most 

expensive piece of 20th century furniture. 

Larger than Life 

Work from the Collection 


1 – 23 April 

An exhibition highlighting super-sized 

acquisitions from Bendigo Art Gallery’s 

collection. Featuring paintings, sculpture 

and work on paper, artists included Andrew 

Browne, Christopher Langton, Richard 

Larter, Mike Parr and Patricia Piccinini. 

To coincide with the exhibition, 

Melbourne based South African artist 

Christopher Langton installed a giant 

spider on the façade of the Gallery. 

Langton has exhibited extensively 

in Australia and overseas and has been 

critically acclaimed for his large scale 

inflatable objects, public installations 

and sculptures. 

David Rankin Works: 1967–2004 

This is A Tweed River Art Gallery 

touring exhibition, financially supported 

by the NSW Ministry for the Arts 

and Adrian Slinger Galleries 

29 April – 28 May 

This survey exhibition of the work 

of David Rankin from 1967 to 2004 saw 

works drawn from the artist’s studio, 

private and public collections. Works 

included paintings, drawings and work 

on paper. Consisting of 53 paintings 

and drawings, this large body of work 

offered the viewer a rare opportunity 

to develop an understanding of Rankin’s 

visual vocabulary and to contemplate the 

journey of one artist in his search for truth 

through creative expression. 

Christopher Beaumont 

Still Life Painting 


13 May – 18 June 

An exhibition of recent paintings by 

Melbourne artist Christopher Beaumont. 

Beaumont was voted the People’s Choice 

winner of the 2005 Arthur Guy Memorial 

Painting Prize and awarded the opportunity 

to present a solo exhibition at Bendigo Art 

Gallery. Beaumont discovered his passion 

for painting still life in the final year 

of art school and has pursued this branch 

of painting consistently since then. ‘Still 

Life is the Particle Accelerator of painting 

where the artist gets to examine reality 

itself.’ says the artist. His exquisite still 

life works of vegetables and fruit are a 

testament to his passion for the meticulous 

glowing still life works by 17th century 

Spanish masters. 

Tainted Love: Contemporary 

developments in landscape 


3 June – 23 July 

The landscape has been a much-loved 

and utilised subject for artists throughout 

the centuries. Tainted Love drew together 

the work of five contemporary Australian 

artists who share an interest in the landscape 

but who treat their subject matter in new 

and unique ways. Dale Frank, Rosemary 

Laing, Chris Langlois, Janet Laurence and 

John Wolseley, all of whom have had their 

work acquired by Bendigo Art Gallery in 

recent years, were included in this exhibition. 

Juxtaposing the unconventional and 

unpredictable, unorthodox comparisons 

and commentaries were encouraged. 

Conventional representations of 

the landscape were not apparent with 

the works selected; instead imaged created 

frisson and fissure, poetic narratives, 

momentary vignettes or disturbing 

relationships between people, place and 

history - a ‘tainted’ love of the landscape. 

The exhibition included paintings, 

photography and work on paper. 

Family Portraits 

Harold Cazneaux & Cecil Bostock 


24 June – 6 August 

This exhibition presented the work 

of two of Australia’s most renowned 

and influential early 20th century 

photographers; Harold Pierce Cazneaux 

Hon. FRPS (1878–1953) and Cecil 

Westmoreland-Bostock, (1884-1939) 

Two of the founding members of the 

Sydney Camera Circle in 1916, Cazneaux 

and Bostock pledged to advance support 

and interest in pictorial photography. 

Both photographers often worked 

with their own children and other family 

members as their favourite models for 

studio and commissioned work. Family 

Portraits included several well known 

images of children and family such 

as Cazneaux’s The Bamboo Blind (1915) 

reproduced in the first issue of the 

influential magazine The Home in 1920 as 

well as private family images. Comprising 

works from the Bostock and Cazneaux 

family collections, the exhibition included 

works not previously seen in public.

the Director has a substantial interest. 

Review of operation and results of operations

No matters or circumstances have arisen 

since the end of the financial year which 

significantly affected or may significantly 

affect the operations of the company, 

the results of operations, or the state of 

affairs of the company in financial years

included in these accounts. 

During the year ended 30th June 2003 the

to be used exclusively for the purpose 

of purchasing paintings or drawings of 

considerable merit to become the property 

of the Bendigo Art Gallery, such purchases 

being subject to the approval of the 

Gallery Director and the Committee of 

Management. The Bendigo Art Gallery 

has resolved to maintain the corpus of 

the bequest at its current level and utilise 

the income earned from the corpus to 

purchase works of art.
