These booksrange from one-off works tomultiples and editions using a varietyof printing techniques from handstamping and etching to collage,photography and other media. Insome cases individual books servedas working documents in thedevelopment of other projects,remaining as the central trace formore ephemeral bodies of work.While Jacks is primarily recognisedas a painter, his practice has alwaysincluded the production of sculpturalworks, as well as prints, drawings andworks in other media. The productionof books as both an end in themselves,and as a site for the developmentof painting, sculptural and conceptualwork is an essential, but underexamined,aspect of Robert Jacks’continuing practice. Thisexhibition examined the full rangeof Jacks’ work in the field of artist'sbooks and also explored the differentways this work relates to his practiceas a whole. The exhibition wascurated by Peter Anderson.The 80sA Bendigo Art Gallery Exhibition28 November – 17 JanuaryThis exhibition celebrated the1980s in art and fashion.

Duringhis early working life in London,Whiteley concurrently worked on twocontrasting themes – the dark, sinisterChristie series and a collection ofdrawings, prints, sculptures andpaintings that featured animals fromLondon’s Regent Park Zoo. Animalsrepresented Whiteley’s earliest interestin a visual iconography within hiswork and his fascination with theenergy, intelligence and lives ofanimals – a theme that continuedthroughout his working life.

2009/10 ANNUAL REPORTBENDIGO ART GALLERYLOANS ANDPUBLICATIONSHilda Rix NicholasThe man for the jobA Bendigo Art Gallery Exhibition23 January – 5 AprilThis exhibition focused on theAustralian images of Rix Nicholas’scareer. The exhibition title came froma statement made by Rix Nicholasherself in 1922 when discussing thenew direction in her work: ‘It has notbeen done to any extent … and Ifeel I am the man for the job.’ Herimages of both men and women inAustralian pastoral scenes challengedthe male-dominated culturaland artistic establishment andeffectively isolated her fromcontemporary Australian femaleartists’ practice. Her aim however wasto present these works to Europeanaudiences and in 1925–26 she wasthe first female Australian artist tohave a solo exhibition in both Parisand London with the exhibitionthen touring to regional galleriesthroughout the United Kingdom.Emily Floyd: TheCultural Studies ReaderA Bendigo Art Gallery Exhibition6 February – 28 MarchStructured around the chapterheadings in Simon During’s CulturalStudies Reader, Emily Floyd's workis a sprawling metropolis populatedby a multitude of rabbits. The artistdescribes it as a self-conscious culturallandscape proposing ‘38 topics for agroup show’. Continuing her analysisof the ritual relationships betweenartists and institutions and the waythat artists generate language, thisinstallation is a self-consciouslyallegorical work about discourse,power and community. Divided intoisland groups, the rabbits appear tobe continually thwarted from leavingtheir designated discourses. The Galleryacquired this work in 2009 and thisexhibition was the first time thework was dislayed at the Gallery.Excellence of WareBendigo PotteryMajolica 1879 – 1911A Bundoora Homestead ArtCentre Touring Exhibition6 March – 9 MayBendigo Pottery is one of Australia’sbest known potteries but an aspectof its history has been neglected.Majolica wares were popular inWestern Europe in the late 19thcentury.

2009/10 ANNUAL REPORTBENDIGO ART GALLERYTREASURER'SREPORTBelow:Rosemary Lainga dozen useless actions for grieving blondes #5 2009type C photographBendigo Art Gallery. The Gift of Grace and Alec Craig,Bendigo, Victoria 2009. Courtesy of the artist and Tolarno Galleries.This report commences with animportant statement of clarification.In previous annual reports the financialstatements have related only to thefunds controlled by the elected Boardof Directors, with no reference to thesignificant contribution made annuallyby the City of Greater Bendigo. Theincome revenue that is controlled bythe Board of Directors is essentiallyderived from the investment of estatesthat have been bequeathed to theGallery, and from subscriptions paidby our ever-increasing membership.These funds are allocated by the Boardtowards the acquisition of works of art,conservation and framing and otherexpenditure that promotes the Galleryand the recognition of art generally.Gallery Membership has increasedsignificantly to in excess of 1400members. This reflects the communityinterest in the Gallery and has becomea significant source of revenue.Each year the budget adopted by theCity of Greater Bendigo includes anallocation of funds to the Gallery, tobe used for staff salaries and on-costs,maintenance of the building andother day to day managementexpenses. These funds are controlledby the Gallery Director. In return,the City gains some return from theGallery Shop and those exhibitionswhich attract an entry fee.Whenever the Board purchasesa work of art, be it a painting,drawing, or sculpture the ownershipof it is transferred to the City, andbecomes a public-owned asset.This system of co-operation betweenthe City Council and the GalleryBoard of Directors has been in placesince 1996 and has been a majorfactor in the remarkable success ofthe Gallery over that time. Includedin this report, therefore, is an additionalpage which provides an outlinesummary of the financial supportprovided by the City during 2009/10.Matters of interestfor 2009/10The Board spent more than $320,000on acquisitions, conservation andframing. This is probably the highestallocation of funds in the history ofthe Gallery.We continued to benefit from the Estateof RHS. Abbott, which ismanaged by Sandhurst Trustees Ltd.A total of $104,000 was received, whichis comparable with previous years. Thecapital of the Estate is not included inthe Statement of Financial Position.The other major source of incomecomes from the investment of the bequestfrom the Estate of Grace OdelineOddy Craig. A very significant portionof the dividends received from the listedshares purchased over recent years isdirectly attributable to this bequest.Our share portfolio had a marketvaluation of $4,203,750 at 30 June2010, even though we have had towrite off $292,037 from an investmentmade four years ago in a ManagedProperty Fund, which was severelyimpacted by the global financial crisis.Despite this, the portfolio’s valuation at30 June 2010 was higher than theprevious year, due to the soundadvice we received from our broker,David Julian of E.L. & C. Baillieu Ltd.In the 2009 Treasurer’s Reportmention was made of theagreement with the Guy familyto transfer their very significantdonation to Bendigo Art GalleryFoundation. The investment of thisdonation covers the $50,000 ArthurGuy Memorial Painting Prize, whichwas awarded in 2009 and will beevery two years thereafter.Indemnification andInsurance of Directorsand OfficersThe company has indemnified allDirectors and the Manager in respectof liabilities to other persons (otherthan the company or related bodycorporate) that may arise from theirposition as Directors or Managerof the company except where theliability arises out of conductinvolving the lack of good faith.Disclosure of the nature of the liabilityand the amount of the premium isprohibited by the confidentialityclause of the contract of insurance.The company has not providedany insurance for an auditor of thecompany or a related body corporate.PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALFOF THE ENTITYNo person has applied for leave ofCourt to bring proceedings on behalfof the entity or intervene in anyproceedings to which the entityis a party for the purpose of takingresponsibility on behalf of the entityfor all or any part of those proceedings.The entity was not a party to anysuch proceedings during the year.Auditors’ independencedeclarationThe lead auditor’s independencedeclaration for the year ended30th June 2010 has been receivedand can be found on page 34 ofthis report.

2009/10 ANNUAL REPORTBENDIGO ART GALLERY1. Statementof significantaccounting policiesThe Directors have prepared thefinancial statements on the basisthat the entity is a non-reportingentity because there are nousers who are dependent on itsgeneral purpose financial reports.This financial report is thereforea special purpose financial reportthat has been prepared in orderto meet the requirements of theCorporations Act 2001 .The financial report has beenprepared in accordance withthe mandatory AustralianAccounting Standards applicableto entities reporting under theCorporations Act 2001 and thesignificant accounting policiesdisclosed below, which the Directorshave determined are appropriate tomeet the needs of members. Suchaccounting policies are consistentwith the previous period unlessstated otherwiseThe financial report is for BendigoArt Gallery as an individual entity,incorporated and domiciled inAustralia. Bendigo Art Gallery isa company limited by guarantee.The following is a summary of thematerial accounting policies adoptedby the entity in the preparation ofthe financial report. The accountingpolicies have been consistentlyapplied, unless otherwise stated.Basis of preparationReporting basis and conventionsThe financial report has beenprepared on an accruals basisand is based on historical costs,modified, where applicable, bythe measurement at fair value ofselected non-current assets, financialassets and financial liabilities.(a) RevenueRevenue from the sale of goodsis recognised upon the deliveryof goods to customers. Dividendrevenue is recognised when theright to receive a dividend has beenestablished. Interest revenue isrecognised when earned. Donationsand bequests are recognised asrevenue when received unless theyare designated for a specific purpose,where they are carried forward asprepaid income on the balancesheet. All revenue is stated net ofthe amount of Goods and ServicesTax (GST).(b) Income taxNo provision for income tax has beenraised as the entity is exempt fromincome tax under Division 50 of theIncome Tax Assessment Act 1997.(c) Goods andServices Tax (GST)Revenues, expenses and assets arerecognised net of the amount ofgoods and services tax (GST), exceptwhere the amount of GST incurredis not recoverable from the taxationauthority. In these circumstances, theGST is recognised as part of the costof acquisition of the asset or as part ofthe expense. Receivables and payablesare stated with the amount of GSTincluded. Cash flows are presentedin the Cashflow Statement on a grossbasis, except for the GST componentof investing and financing activities,which are disclosed as operatingcash flows.(d) Cash and cashequivalentsCash and cash equivalents includescash on hand, deposits held at-callwith banks, other short-term highlyliquid investments with maturitiesof three months or less, and bankoverdrafts.(e) Comparative figuresWhere required by AccountingStandards, comparative figureshave been adjusted to conformto changes in presentation forthe current financial year.(f) Financial InstrumentsInitial recognition and measurementFinancial assets and financial liabilitiesare recognised when the entitybecomes a party to contractualprovisions to the instrument. Forfinancial assets, this is equivalent tothe date that the company commitsitself to either purchase or sellthe asset (trade date accounting isadopted). Financial instruments areinitially measured at fair valueplus transaction costs.Classification and subsequentmeasurementFinance instruments are subsequentlymeasured at fair value. Fair valuerepresents the amount for which anasset could be exchanged or a liabilitysettled, between knowledgeable,willing parties. Where availablequoted prices in an active market areused to determine fair value.The effective interest method is usedto allocate interest income or interestexpense over the relevant period andis equivalent to the rate that exactlydiscounts estimated future cashpayments or receipts (including fees,transaction costs and other premiumsor discounts) through the expectedlife (or where unable to be reliablypredicted, the contractual term)of the financial instrument to thenet carrying amount of the financialasset or financial liability. Revisionsto expected future net cash flowswill necessitate an adjustmentto the carrying value with aconsequential recognition of anincome or expense in profit or loss.(i) Financial assets at fair valuethrough profit or loss.Financial assets are classified at 'fairvalue through profit or loss' whenthey are held for trading forthe purpose of short term profittaking. Such assets are subsequentlymeasured at fair value withchanges in carrying value beingincluded in profit or loss.(ii) Loans and receivablesLoans and receivables are nonderivativefinancial assets with fixedor determinable payments that arenot quoted in an active marketand are subsequently measuredat amortised cost.(iii) Held-to-maturity investmentsHeld-to-maturity investments arenon-derivative financial assets thathave fixed maturities and fixedor determinable payments, and it isthe entity's intention to hold theseinvestments to maturity. They aresubsequently measured at amortisedcost.(iv) Available-for-sale financial assetsAvailable-for-sale financial assets arenon-derivative financial assets that areeither not capable of beingclassified into other categories offinancial assets due to their nature,or they are designated as such bymanagement. They compriseinvestments in the equity of otherentities where there is neither a fixedmaturity nor fixed or determinablepayments.(v) Financial liabilitiesNon-derivative financial liabilities(excluding financial guarantees)are subsequently measured atamortised cost.Fair ValueFair value is determined based oncurrent bid prices for all quotedinvestments. Valuation techniques areapplied to determine the fair value forall unlisted securities, including recentarms length transactions, reference tosimilar instruments and option pricingmodels.ImpairmentAt each reporting date, the entityassesses whether there is objectiveevidence that a financial instrumenthas been impaired. In the caseof available-for-sale financialinstruments, prolonged decline inthe value of the instrument isconsidered to determine whetheran impairment has arisen. Impairmentlosses are recognised in the IncomeStatement.DerecognitionFinancial assets are derecognisedwhere contractual rights to receiptof cash flows expires or the assetis transferred to another partywhereby the entity no longer has anysignificant continuing involvementin the risks and benefits associatedwith the asset. Financial liabilitiesare derecognised where the relatedobligations are either discharged,cancelled or expired. The differencebetween the carrying value ofthe financial liability, which isextinguished or transferred to anotherparty and the fair value of theconsideration paid, including thetransfer of non-cash assets or liabilitiesassumed, is recognised in profitor loss.(g) Greater BendigoCity Council - AssetsDuring the year ended 30 June1996, Bendigo Art Galleryentered into an agreement withthe Greater Bendigo City Counciltransferring.- All real property contained inthe Gallery Premises located at42 and 43 View Street Bendigo;- All paintings, prints, sculptures,decorative arts, artefacts and otherart objects- All equipment and other chattelsin its possession or ownership(h) Greater Bendigo CityCouncil - OperationsAn agreement between Bendigo ArtGallery and the Greater Bendigo CityCouncil entered into during theyear ended 30 June 1996 providesthat Bendigo Art Gallery receivesincome from bequests, investmentsand members subscriptions.

The following is anexplanation of the impact theadoption of these standards andinterpretations has had on thefinancial statem of BendigoArt Gallery.AASB 101: Presentationof Financial Statements.In September 2007 the AustralianAccounting Standards Board revisedAASB 101 and as a result, there havebeen changes to the presentationand disclosure of certain informationwithin the financial statements. Belowis an overview of the key changesand the impact on the Company’sfinancial statements.Disclosure impactTerminology changes – The revisedversion of AASB 101 contains anumber of terminology changes,including the amendmen the namesof the primary financial statements.Reporting changes in equity – Therevised AASB 101 requires all changesin equity arising from transactionswith owners, in their capacity asowners, to be presented separatelyfrom non-owner changes in equity.Owner changes in equity are to bepresented in the statement of changesin equity, with non-owner changesin equity presente statement ofcomprehensive income. The previousversion of AASB 101 required thatowner changes in equity and othercomprehensive income be presentedin the statement of changes in equity.Statement of comprehensive income– The revised AASB 101 requires allincome and expenses to be presentedin either one statement, the statementof comprehensive income, or twostatements, a separate incomestatement and a statement of28 29

2009/10 ANNUAL REPORTBENDIGO ART GALLERYcomprehensive income. The previousversion of AASB 101 required onlythe presentation of a single incomestatement. The Company’s financialstatements now contain a statementof comprehensive income.Other comprehensive income –The revised version of AASB 101introduces the concept of ‘othercomprehensive income’ whichcomprises of income and expensesthat are not recognised in profitor loss as required by otherAustralian Accounting Standards.Items of other comprehensive incomeare to be disclosed in the statementof comprehensive income.
