QUT Blueprint 4
Get PDFQUT is a major Australian university that ambitiously positions itself as a university for the real world of today and tomorrow.
Recognising that we are in a state of fundamental change, the Blueprint’s role is to anticipate the nature and impact of change, and to enable the University to thrive and adapt in ways that ensure we continue to meet the needs of students and serve more effectively the professions,
industry and the wider community.
Over the period ahead, QUT will strengthen its reputation for producing graduates who can thrive in volatile environments over the long term, work productively in teams, and combine depth in professional knowledge with broad perspectives based on exposure to new ideas
and different cultures. This focus on the undergraduate experience will be complemented by a much stronger emphasis on ongoing professional education. Meanwhile our research will grow in impact by combining disciplinary strength with interdisciplinary application and
be distinguished by the extent to which we embed and deliver on a commitment to working in major partnerships with industry. In particular, evolving technologies of automation, personalization and big data are advancing disciplines, transforming professions and disrupting business models. QUT is beginning to build critical mass in these enabling technologies and is well positioned to differentiate its research and teaching by exploiting their
application. This technological edge, coupled with our interdisciplinary culture and willingness to work with end users, represents an important competitive advantage for QUT.
Meeting all these challenges will require a sustainable and highly capable workforce, worldclass facilities, sound financial management, robust operating systems and, perhaps above all, our continuing to foster QUT’s proud sense of community and engagement with alumni

William Robinson: Infinite sphere: 18 July 2014 to 19 July 2015
Get PDFForward
As the Executive Director of QUT Precincts, I am very pleased to
be involved with the William Robinson Gallery, now celebrating
its fifth anniversary. As Pablo Picasso said, “Art washes away
from the soul the dust of everyday life”, and this is certainly the
effect that William Robinson’s work seems to have on people—it
elevates and takes them on a journey away from the mundane.
The William Robinson Gallery is unique in that it is the only
gallery in the nation dedicated exclusively to a living Australian
artist. The Gallery, in a relatively short period, has achieved
extraordinary things. Significantly, the Collection has grown
from 120 works in 2009 to over 150 works in 2014. This growth
includes the acquisition of some of the artist’s most significant
work, including: eight self portraits, two of them the Archibald
Prize–award winners; The blue pools, Springbrook to Beechmont 2000;
and, most recently, two of the artist’s multi-panel paintings, The
garden 2013 and Creation landscape: Dome of space and time 2003–04.
William Robinson: Infinite sphere will be the seventh exhibition to be
held at the gallery since its opening in 2009. Each of the previous
exhibitions has looked at a particular period or influence running
through Robinson’s work, or, in the case of Insights (held in
2012/13), sought the reflections of significant Australians close to
the artist and his work. In this exhibition, we explore works from
Robinson’s early career in the 1970s through to those created in
very recent times, and chart the correspondences and consistency
of his oeuvre. Infinite sphere includes many of the new acquisitions
that now form a substantial cornerstone of the William Robinson
Collection.
We are very grateful to be custodians of these remarkable
artworks, but we are also indebted to the many people who have
made works available for loan from their collections. Without
their support, we would be unable to bring together such
thoughtful and comprehensive exhibitions.
It is also timely to acknowledge the considerable support that
has been made through gifts to the Collection. Without this
philanthropic support, we would be unable to realise our
ambitions for the William Robinson Gallery, its exhibition, and
public and education programs. The Collection is the foundation
of these activities, and QUT has a commitment to ensuring its
appropriate management and preservation. In keeping with this
commitment, new state-of-the-art storage facilities have recently
been completed, and ecologically sustainable LED gallery
lighting has been installed in the exhibition spaces. Significantly,
QUT has secured a 99-year lease on Old Government House
from the Queensland State Government, which ensures the
perpetuity of the William Robinson Gallery.
As always, QUT is enormously grateful to William and Shirley
Robinson and the Robinson family for their generosity and
dedication to the Gallery. I would also like to acknowledge
the growing number of friends and supporters of the Gallery,
including private donors, and the wise counsel offered by
both Philip Bacon and Stuart Purves. I also acknowledge the
considerable support from QUT’s Vice Chancellor, Professor
Peter Coaldrake.
Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to the Senior Curator
of the Gallery, Vanessa Van Ooyen, and her team. In particular I
thank Vanessa for her dedication to the Gallery, astute oversight
of the acquisitions and exhibition program, and tireless work
in curating this, the seventh exhibition held in the William
Robinson Gallery: William Robinson: Infinite sphere.
