Pygmalion and Galatea, Connor Fogarty (2020) - World Premiere (2021)
No full textResearch Background:
This research involved the selection, preparation, rehearsal, workshopping and world premiere performance of a new work for Cello and Piano by Australian composer Connor Fogarty, entitled “Pygmalion and Galatea”. The work was unanimously selected as winner of the 2020 Accompanists’ Guild of South Australia Composition Award by adjudicators Umberto Clerici (piano) and Daniel de Borah (piano), who subsequently workshopped the composition with the composer before presenting a public performance.
Research Contribution:
The research represents an important new addition to the contemporary Australian classical cello & piano repertoire. Inspired by the Ancient Greek myth of Pygmalion and Galatea, Fogarty’s work explores themes of love, yearning and animation, exploiting the possibilities of the cello/piano duo through innovative textural and harmonic devices built upon the pervading idea of a rising sixth. By supporting the AGSA Composition Award, engaging with the work of budding Australian composers and providing a public platform for the winning entrant, the research also serves to promote the long-term advancement of Australian art music culture.
Research Significance
The work was publicly workshopped with the composer at the AGSA Conference on 12 June 2021 (see video link) and premiered in a public performance at Elder Hall (Adelaide) on 13 June 2021. The performance was recorded and disseminated by 5MBS Radio (see audio link).

Cutting'aesthetic teeth' : Flannery O'Connor's habit of art
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoEste trabalho foi sugerido pela afirmação de Flannery O'Connor que sua "dedicação estética" nasceu através do contato com Art and Scholasticism de Jacques Maritain. O propósito foi chegar a uma interpretação do sentido da frase. Uma investigação detalhada foi feita do conteúdo de Art and Scholasticism, posteriormente contrastada com os resultados de uma pesquisa feita em seus ensaios e suas cartas, o que revelou numerosos ecos de diversos trechos constando no texto de Maritain. Três pontos principais foram escolhidos como critérios na análise do hábito artístico de O'Connor: 1) a prática de arte implica uma luta; 2) a arte somente pode ser percebida pelos sentidos; e 3) a prática de arte exige do artista a dedicação indivisa à obra nascente. O estudo conclui que, para O'Connor, o brotar da dentição estética, através da leitura de Art and Scholasticism, significou que, ao perceber na análise da natureza da arte algo com que podia concordar, ela reconheceu tanto sua própria capacidade de tornar-se uma artista literária, quanto sua vontade de assumir a tarefa de desenvolver em sua pessoa o hábito de arte
