10 director’s review (cont’d)11and the Portrait <strong>of</strong> Fritza Riedler (from theBelvedere Museum in Vienna), which she hadnever seen exhibited together before, eitherin Austria or in any <strong>of</strong> the many internationalexhibitions on the subject.I commend in particular Frances Lindsay,our Deputy Director, and the many curatorialand other staff who worked so hard tocreate this beautiful, faultlessly installed,show. While the critical response to Viennawas uniformly glowing and all who saw theshow admired it greatly, the final number <strong>of</strong>172,000, slightly lower than planned.Overall, however, the <strong>NGV</strong> has donetremendously well at drawing large numbers<strong>of</strong> visitors to such exhibitions, therebysupporting the state economy and alsogenerating funds which can then supportother exhibitions. As a whole, our MWMseries has been highly successful attracting,some 2 million visitors since its inception in2004, with an independently estimated directeconomic benefit to <strong>Victoria</strong> <strong>of</strong> $145 million.Our major exhibition over the summermonths, and the perfect successor to Vienna,was The Mad Square: Modernity in GermanArt 1910–37, the most comprehensivecollection <strong>of</strong> German modernism ever seenin Australia. Undertaken in collaborationwith the Art <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> NSW, this powerfuland thought-provoking exhibition showcaseda tumultuous era <strong>of</strong> great experimentationand innovation, bringing to a close a trilogy<strong>of</strong> major shows tracing radical artisticdevelopments in central Europe which webegan in 2010 with European Masters: StädelMuseum, 19th–20th Century, followed bythe two major exhibitions exploring radicalpractice in Vienna before World War I, andBerlin in its aftermath.To celebrate the 40 th anniversary <strong>of</strong> CentralAustralia’s Papunya Tula movement, wepresented Tjukurrtjanu: Origins <strong>of</strong> WesternDesert Art, a powerful, once-in-a-lifetimeexhibition, which brought together some 200seminal paintings produced by the foundingWestern Desert artists in the early 1970s.This extraordinary exhibition, developedin collaboration with Museum <strong>Victoria</strong>and Papunya Tula Artists, showcased arevolutionary period in Indigenous art thatchanged the way we see Australia. We arethrilled that this momentous exhibition will bethe first large-scale <strong>NGV</strong> exhibition to travelto Europe when it opens at the Musée du QuaiBranly in Paris in October 20<strong>12</strong>.In April we opened another great exhibition at<strong>NGV</strong> Australia, and like Tjukurrtjanu, one thatwe thought every Australian should see, FredWilliams: Infinite Horizons, a superb overview<strong>of</strong> the career <strong>of</strong> one <strong>of</strong> this country’s mostimportant and influential artists. Williamswas always a great friend and supporter <strong>of</strong>the <strong>NGV</strong>, a bond enthusiastically continuedby his wife, Lyn, and we are very proud tostage this stunning exhibition, curated by the<strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> Australia and the firstmajor retrospective <strong>of</strong> Williams’ work in morethan 25 years.The exhibition received extensive and verycomplimentary media coverage. We wereespecially delighted that Patrick McCaughey,former <strong>NGV</strong> Director and author <strong>of</strong> the majormonograph on Williams, participated in theopening events and lectured to a capacityaudience on 11 April.As always, we closed the reporting yearwith the opening <strong>of</strong> our new MWM show,which <strong>of</strong>fers a rare glimpse into theextraordinarily powerful and glamorous world<strong>of</strong> Napoleon’s empire, which emerged fromthe chaos <strong>of</strong> the French Revolution.Organised in partnership with the FondationNapoléon in Paris, Napoleon: Revolution toEmpire includes some 300 works inall media – paintings, watercolours anddrawings, engravings, sculpture, furniture,textiles, porcelain, glass, gold and silver,fashion, jewellery and armour – drawn fromboth the Fondation’s own collection andfrom museums and private collectionsthroughout Europe.Held on 29 May as part <strong>of</strong> the opening weekfor Napoleon, the <strong>NGV</strong>’s Annual Dinner was avery well attended and successful event, withover 250 guests raising $240,000 in donationsto the art acquisitions fund.During my presentation at the dinner I wasable to announce that we had reached $<strong>12</strong>0million <strong>of</strong> the $150 million we set out to raisefor our Masterpieces for Melbourne campaign– a very good result in a time <strong>of</strong> greateconomic uncertainty. I also introduced some<strong>of</strong> the acquisition highlights <strong>of</strong> the previousyear and, in response to interest expressedby a number <strong>of</strong> guests, some <strong>of</strong> the artworksfor which we were hoping to raise funds. Toour great surprise and delight, nearly everyone <strong>of</strong> them has now been acquired, thanksto the outstanding generosity and support <strong>of</strong>our friends.On behalf <strong>of</strong> the <strong>NGV</strong>, I would like to thankmost warmly everyone who has contributedto our fundraising campaign. These generousdonations have enabled us to acquire manyexceptional masterpieces for <strong>Victoria</strong>.New spaces: Contemporary and Asian artMuch <strong>of</strong> the work <strong>of</strong> the past year has beendedicated to completing aspects <strong>of</strong> ourimportant 150 th anniversary renewalprogram, begun in <strong>2011</strong> using funds fromboth the Government <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> andphilanthropic sources.As part <strong>of</strong> this program, in November weopened a new gallery space for contemporaryexhibitions on the ground floor <strong>of</strong> <strong>NGV</strong>International, with the opening exhibitionsgenerously supported by Joan and PeterClemenger, who have done so much overmany years to promote the presentation <strong>of</strong>contemporary Australian visual culture atthe <strong>NGV</strong>.For nearly 20 years, the triennial ClemengerContemporary Art Award, establishedthrough Joan and Peter’s generous donationto the <strong>NGV</strong> in 1991, fostered creativity andinnovation by <strong>of</strong>fering support and recognitionto outstanding emerging artists at pivotalmoments in their careers. When this Awardcame to an end in 2009, the Clemengers,again with great prescience, were keen t<strong>of</strong>ind a new way in which they could continueto support contemporary art and we aredeeply grateful to them for their vision andremarkable generosity in funding these newcontemporary exhibitions.Our inaugural exhibition in the new spacewas Dewdrops and Sunshine, an intriguinginstallation show by Ranjani Shettar, atalented young sculptor and installationartist from Bangalore, India, who has alreadymade a name for herself internationally, andfor good reason. This captivating exhibitionexplored the interplay between environmentalelements and living things through soaringlyrical forms comprised <strong>of</strong> natural andindustrial materials.This was followed by UnexpectedPleasures: The Art and Design <strong>of</strong>Contemporary Jewellery, curated byacclaimed jewellery designer and <strong>NGV</strong>Trustee Susan Cohn (the arrangements forwhich had been made in advance <strong>of</strong> Susanjoining the Council <strong>of</strong> Trustees). Stagedin collaboration with the London DesignMuseum, the exhibition featured innovativelocal and international contemporarypieces that challenge our conventionalunderstanding <strong>of</strong> the form and function <strong>of</strong>jewellery, focusing instead on the power <strong>of</strong>personal adornment and the collaborativemeanings created by both maker and wearer.Another major renewal project that hasoccupied our time over the past <strong>12</strong> monthshas been the expansion and redesign <strong>of</strong> ourAsian galleries, scheduled to reopenin October.The new suite <strong>of</strong> rooms will include thePauline Gandel <strong>Gallery</strong>, our first gallerydedicated entirely to Japanese art, which,I am delighted to say, will finally allow usto showcase the breadth and depth <strong>of</strong> ourgrowing Japanese collection in a mannerthat befits it, in a spacious and very beautifulcontext. It is our aim to present withinthe gallery a number <strong>of</strong> separate displaysfocusing on different aspects <strong>of</strong> the collection,including Buddhist art, lacquerware, paintings,ceramics, woodblock prints, Noh theatre andthe tea ceremony.We are grateful to John and Pauline Gandeland to the Government <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> forgenerously funding this important addition.We are also deeply indebted to the President<strong>of</strong> our Council <strong>of</strong> Trustees, Allan Myers,and his wife, Maria, whose astute andexceptionally generous gifts <strong>of</strong> major works <strong>of</strong>art have transformed our Japanese collectionin recent years. Since we reported on theexquisite <strong>12</strong> th century Sho Kannon Bosatsusculpture they acquired for the <strong>NGV</strong>’s 150 thanniversary – a masterpiece <strong>of</strong> great qualityand rarity – Allan and Maria have purchasedseveral additional items for us, including agroup <strong>of</strong> highly important 17 th and 18 th centuryNoh theatrical masks, certain to be highlights<strong>of</strong> the new gallery. I would also like to thankTrustee Jason Yeap, who presented us with alate 17 th century screen, Tales <strong>of</strong> Genji, anothernotable addition to our holdings <strong>of</strong> Japaneseart, and for his invaluable assistance inhelping to forge new relationships and buildsupport for our Asian collections.In addition, we are finalising an equallyexciting rethink <strong>of</strong> the Myer Family <strong>Gallery</strong>,which will now be divided into a sectiondedicated to Chinese works, particularlyceramics and paintings, and a section focusingon the visual cultures <strong>of</strong> Southeast Asia andIndia. This will allow us to concentrate, inparticular, on the great religions <strong>of</strong> the regionand to tell the story <strong>of</strong> their development,artistic representation and influence. The <strong>NGV</strong>thanks the Myer family funds for theircontinuing support.While the Asian galleries were closed forthis major refurbishment, we installed a freeexhibition on level 2 <strong>of</strong> <strong>NGV</strong> International<strong>of</strong> key works from our collection, tracingthe history <strong>of</strong> Buddhism and its expansionthroughout Asia. Featuring items from India,Gandhara, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam,Japan, China, Tibet, Nepal and Bhutan, theexhibition was extremely popular, drawingclose to 340,000 visitors during its almostsix-month season. This clearly demonstratesthe keen interest that the <strong>Victoria</strong>ncommunity takes in Asian art, and we lookforward to an even more enthusiastic publicresponse when the new galleries are unveiledlater in the year.An innovative and important feature <strong>of</strong> thenew galleries will be that all didactic panelswill be bilingual – in English and Chinese –and many will be trilingual, with Japaneseincluded in the Japanese gallery, and Hindi,Indonesian, Vietnamese and other Asianlanguages incorporated, as appropriate, inrelation to particular works or displays.Significant visitors and visitsIt has been a very busy time in terms <strong>of</strong><strong>of</strong>ficial visits and we welcomed somedistinguished and important guests at the<strong>NGV</strong> during the year.Perhaps the greatest highlight <strong>of</strong> the 150 thanniversary celebrations was the visit <strong>of</strong>H.M. Queen Elizabeth II and H.R.H. the Duke<strong>of</strong> Edinburgh to Federation Square and <strong>NGV</strong>Australia on 20 October. The Queen was


<strong>12</strong> director’s review (cont’d)13particularly interested in the outstandingIndigenous exhibition Living Water:Contemporary Art <strong>of</strong> the Western Desert,which formed the major part <strong>of</strong> the FeltonBequest’s 150 th anniversary gift, and had theopportunity to speak with several artists whohad travelled to Melbourne to attendthe occasion.While the visit was necessarily brief, itwas a great honour and very muchappreciated, as the royal couple’s time inMelbourne was very limited. Their visit was aclear acknowledgement <strong>of</strong> the important rolethe <strong>NGV</strong> has played in our nation’s culturalhistory. Also in October, a delegation headedby <strong>NGV</strong> President Allan Myers – includingTrustee Jason Yeap, Senior Curator <strong>of</strong>Asian Art Dr Mae Anna Pang and myself,along with the Director <strong>of</strong> the Hamilton Art<strong>Gallery</strong>, Danny McGowan, former Trusteeand independent artist Sally Smart andthe Director <strong>of</strong> AsiaLink at the University<strong>of</strong> Melbourne, Lesley Alway – made a veryinformative and productive visit to China.Organised by Jason Yeap in collaborationwith the Chinese Consulate in Melbourne,with funding from the Ministry for Culturein Beijing, the busy program included visitsto Shanghai, Xi’an and Beijing, after whichJason Yeap and I continued on to GuangzhouProvince, where I was keynote speaker at aconference to open the new Kingold Museum.In addition, Deputy Director Frances Lindsaywas invited to Korea on a cultural exchangehosted by the Korean Foundation, to helpcelebrate the Korea Australia Year <strong>of</strong>Friendship, meeting with many directors <strong>of</strong>Korean art museums as well as a number <strong>of</strong>local artists.These visits represented important stepsforward in forging stronger culturalrelations with China and Korea, with a viewto promoting collaborative projects andexhibition exchanges in future.Financial sustainabilityThe <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong> financial year saw revenuesincrease by nearly 8% over the previous year,largely as a result <strong>of</strong> the performance <strong>of</strong> theexhibition program. Despite external economicuncertainty, we were also able to increase ourrevenues from our retail operations and thecommercial sector through sponsorship andnew membership <strong>of</strong>fers.As a result <strong>of</strong> these efforts, and the carefuland prudent management <strong>of</strong> our cost base,our reported operating deficit <strong>of</strong> $1.6 millionwas significantly better than budget.It should be acknowledged, however, thatpart <strong>of</strong> this was attributable to the fact thatthe Community and Public Sector Unionand the <strong>Victoria</strong>n Government did not reachagreement in the year on a new enterpriseagreement. As a result, the <strong>NGV</strong>, which is ina nexus arrangement with this agreement,did not incur the cost <strong>of</strong> a staff pay rise inthe year. While this is now commonplacein the wider economy, it is clearly not idealand it says much for our teams here thatthey continue to display such unwaveringcommitment to the work <strong>of</strong> the <strong>NGV</strong>, and theexcellence <strong>of</strong> its exhibitions, programs andvisitor services and facilities.Looking forward, we are committed toensuring the <strong>NGV</strong>’s financial sustainability,through the ongoing support <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Victoria</strong>nGovernment, the generation <strong>of</strong> new revenues,and the sound and responsible management<strong>of</strong> costs. Further information on the financialperformance <strong>of</strong> this year, and previous years,is provided on pages 32 and 33 and theaudited financial statements which follow.Thank youAs this is my final report after 13 years, Iwould like to pay a special tribute to all thosewho work so hard to make the <strong>NGV</strong> the greatinstitution it is.Firstly, on behalf <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Gallery</strong> and theentire community, I would like to thank theState Government – in particular Ted BaillieuMLA, Premier and Minister for the Arts, andHeidi <strong>Victoria</strong> MLA, Parlimentary SecretaryAssisting the Premier with the Arts, theSecretary <strong>of</strong> the Department <strong>of</strong> Premier andCabinet, Helen Silver; and the Director <strong>of</strong> Arts<strong>Victoria</strong>, Penny Hutchinson – whose ongoingcommitment to the arts portfolio enables us tocontinue collecting and presenting great art forthe people <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>. I would also like to thankthe Melbourne City Council and the Lord Mayor,Robert Doyle, in particular, for the personalinterest he has taken in supporting extended<strong>NGV</strong> opening hours, providing a generous grantto enable late-night openings and subsidisedticket prices during our Napoleon season.We have a strong and effective Council, ledso adeptly by our President, Allan Myers,who has brought to the <strong>NGV</strong> a strong sense<strong>of</strong> governance and admirable rigour inmanaging our finances and aspirations; asmentioned earlier in this report, Allan (withhis wife Maria) has also been an exceptionallygenerous donor. I would like to thank Allanand all <strong>of</strong> our Trustees for their commitmentover the years and their inspiring personalgenerosity. We are extremely grateful for allthat they give the <strong>NGV</strong> in so many ways.I would also like to thank my ExecutiveManagement Team, who work tirelesslyto ensure great results for the <strong>Victoria</strong>ncommunity. It’s been a privilege and apleasure to work with such a capable andcommitted team. I would especially like toacknowledge the enormous contributionmade by Frances Lindsay over 17 years inher two periods <strong>of</strong> service to the <strong>NGV</strong>, thelast <strong>12</strong> as Deputy Director, who announcedthat she will be leaving the <strong>NGV</strong> in August.We have all benefitted immensely fromFrances’ exceptional dedication to her role, herwillingness to put in whatever time and effortwere required, her attention to detail and herfaultless judgement in planning the installation<strong>of</strong> artworks. She will be greatly missed. I wouldlike to wish Andrew Clark all the best in hisnew role <strong>of</strong> Deputy Director.Several other colleagues left us during theyear, and in particular I would like to thankSue C<strong>of</strong>fey, our Head <strong>of</strong> Media and PublicAffairs, who worked with us with greatgusto and creativity in two stints for nearlya decade, and Leigh Mackay, who had beenthe knowledgeable and pr<strong>of</strong>essional Head <strong>of</strong>Corporate Office and Secretary to the Council<strong>of</strong> Trustees since 2006.The staff <strong>of</strong> the <strong>NGV</strong> are an exceptionallydedicated and hard working group <strong>of</strong> peopleand are the key to our success. Their diligenceand creativity shine through, not only in thetemporary exhibitions in terms <strong>of</strong> the quality<strong>of</strong> the research, curatorship and design, butalso in the permanent galleries, which arealways so well installed and so admiredby visiting directors and curators. As theoutgoing Director, I feel that this is a momentwhen I can unashamedly acknowledge thedepth and quality <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional skills <strong>of</strong>feredby the <strong>NGV</strong>, which relies entirely upon thecommitment and creativity <strong>of</strong> our staff. Ithank my Executive Assistant, ChristineBarraclough, supported by Marissa Cassin, forher huge dedication and loyalty.The <strong>NGV</strong> has always been, and continuesto be, a community facility, existing for thepeople <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>, reflecting their ideas andaspirations. We have many supporter groups,including our Members program (which, withmore than 41,000 members, continues to bethe largest membership <strong>of</strong> any museum orgallery in the country); our <strong>NGV</strong> Foundation, agroup <strong>of</strong> extremely generous friends, who againand again make the donations <strong>of</strong> artworksand money that enable the expansion anddevelopment <strong>of</strong> the collection; our VoluntaryGuides, who provide such a fantastic servicefor visitors both to the permanent collectionand to temporary exhibitions; and the <strong>NGV</strong>Women’s Association, who continue to raisevital funds through tremendous events eachyear; and the Friends <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Gallery</strong> Librarywho devote so much time and energy to theShaw Research Library. We could not existwithout their invaluable support.Of course, the Felton Bequest continuesto play a major role in the expansion <strong>of</strong> thecollection, and in its first group <strong>of</strong> acquisitionsfollowing the wonderful Indigenous gifts forour 150 th anniversary, it has most generouslyacquired a group <strong>of</strong> Japanese antiquities <strong>of</strong>exceptional quality in honour <strong>of</strong> Allan Myers’period as President <strong>of</strong> the Council. In addition,the Bequest has acquired from the Deanand Chapter <strong>of</strong> St Paul’s Cathedral a highlyimportant pair <strong>of</strong> carved Baroque chairs by thegreat Venetian furniture maker and craftsmanAndrea Brustolon, which had been on loan forsome time, and I feel touched that these arebeing been presented to the <strong>NGV</strong> in honour <strong>of</strong>my years as Director.I would like to take this opportunity once againto thank Sir Andrew Grimwade, Chairman<strong>of</strong> the Felton Bequests Committee, for hisongoing support. We were very pleased thatin May this year, an anthology <strong>of</strong> his manyspeeches and writings was launched at <strong>NGV</strong>Australia, which contained a substantialgroup <strong>of</strong> references to the <strong>NGV</strong>, gleaned fromAndrew’s rich experience as the longestserving President <strong>of</strong> our Council <strong>of</strong> Trustees.Over the past five years, we have raisedmore money than ever before from the privatesector, and many important works havebeen donated or acquired for the collection.We remain deeply grateful for the generoussupport <strong>of</strong> all our corporate partners anddonors, those individuals and organisationsin the community who have decided to investin the success <strong>of</strong> the <strong>NGV</strong> for current andfuture generations. We thank each and everyone <strong>of</strong> them.I have <strong>of</strong>ten said that when I returned toMelbourne in 1999 to become Director <strong>of</strong>the <strong>NGV</strong>, I was instantly reminded <strong>of</strong> thedeep interest, affection and care the wholecommunity takes in the <strong>NGV</strong> and in itssuccess. My experience here over 13 years hasonly reinforced that impression, particularlyduring the 150 th anniversary celebrations lastyear. The <strong>NGV</strong> holds a very special place in<strong>Victoria</strong>ns’ hearts; it is embraced with realaffection as a central part <strong>of</strong> our cultural life,and I know this will continue to strengthen.We were delighted that we regained ourposition as the most visited museum orgallery in the country in <strong>2011</strong> and were the25 th most visited in the world, based onThe Arts Newspaper’s annual survey <strong>of</strong> globalmuseum attendances. It is a great place to beand a wonderful note on which to sign <strong>of</strong>f.In closing, I would like to thank everyone whohas supported me personally in my years asDirector, in particular my wife, Rose, who forso many years has been such a great supportand who has also made her own significantcontribution to the <strong>NGV</strong>’s life and success,and <strong>of</strong> course my children, Ali and Charlie.I wish our new Director, Tony Ellwood, all<strong>of</strong> my colleagues here, and every <strong>NGV</strong>stakeholder the greatest successes asthey go forward.Gerard VaughanDirectorJuly 20<strong>12</strong>

32 Five year financial33summaryBasis <strong>of</strong> preparationThe table opposite distinguishes betweenthe <strong>NGV</strong>’s operating and non-operatingactivities, a distinction not readily seen inthe comprehensive operating statement onpage 37. This distinction is important as thecomprehensive operating statement includessignificant income and expenditure which relateto the management <strong>of</strong> the <strong>NGV</strong>’s capital cycle.In particular, the <strong>NGV</strong> raises substantial funds,including grants, donations and bequests, whichare not available for operating purposes but arecommitted for the purchase <strong>of</strong> works <strong>of</strong> art orfor building works. These funds also generateinvestment income for the <strong>NGV</strong>. In addition, the<strong>NGV</strong> also accounts for depreciation charges inrespect <strong>of</strong> its property, plant and equipment.At present, the output price from Government,which determines the annual recurrent grant,does not include an allowance for depreciation.Review <strong>of</strong> operating performanceThe operating result for <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong>, beforeaccounting for depreciation and beforerecognising the net income from non-operatingactivities, was a deficit <strong>of</strong> $1.6 million (2010/11:deficit <strong>of</strong> $2.2 million). This deficit was betterthan the budget for the year, which hadenvisaged that most major revenues, includingthe recurrent State Government grant, wouldeither stay flat, or fall. In practice, theseimpacts were significantly lessened by thedeferral <strong>of</strong> expenditure and by the carefulmanagement <strong>of</strong> other costs.Overall, operating expenses increased by only0.5% over <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong>, with increases in coststo deliver significant parts <strong>of</strong> two major, andcomplex, Melbourne Winter Masterpiecesexhibitions (Vienna: Art & Design and Napoleon:Revolution to Empire) and unavoidableincreases in energy, and other contractedcosts, being almost fully compensated for bysavings in other areas. Human resource costsfell by 5% during the year. This reduction hasbeen amplified by the fact that the CPSUand the <strong>Victoria</strong>n Government did not reachagreement on a new enterprise agreement,with which the <strong>NGV</strong> is linked in respect <strong>of</strong> payrates, until after the year end. As a result, nopay rise was paid to <strong>NGV</strong> staff during <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong>.Other savings were made through the carefulmanagement <strong>of</strong> staff vacancies, casual staff,leave levels and the implementation <strong>of</strong> othermeasures to improve operations.Revenue from trading activities was 7.6%, or$1.4 million, better than 2010/11 principallyas the result <strong>of</strong> revenues generated from alarger exhibition program than the previousyear, including admissions, retail sales andcommercial sponsorship. Overall, nearly230,000 tickets were sold for <strong>NGV</strong> exhibitionsin <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong>, a 9.5% increase on the previousyear. Targeted strategies to increaseparticipation from corporate members andthe <strong>NGV</strong> Business Council also succeeded ingenerating additional revenue, despite externaleconomic pressures.After accounting for depreciation and similarcharges, the operating deficit for the yearwas $13.9 million, an increase on the previousyear’s deficit <strong>of</strong> $<strong>12</strong>.3 million. This largelyreflects the annual charge for depreciationwhich increased in the year, reflecting highercarrying values for building assets followingtheir revaluation in 2010/11. As describedabove, the <strong>NGV</strong>, in common with many otherGovernment departments and agencies is notfunded for the cost <strong>of</strong> depreciation.Review <strong>of</strong> non–operatingperformanceThe fundraising performance in <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong>,as measured by income received, did not,overall, reach the heights <strong>of</strong> 2010/11, the150 th anniversary year, in which an exceptionalamount <strong>of</strong> $29.2 million was generated.Nevertheless, the <strong>2011</strong>/<strong>12</strong> total <strong>of</strong> $18.9 millionwas a significant achievement and the secondbestfundraising year since 2003/04. While giftsin kind were lower than 2010/11, cash giftswere higher and reached over $10.4 million.Net resultThe overall result for the year <strong>of</strong> a surplus<strong>of</strong> $4.97 million takes into account all theresults from operating and non-operatingperformance (2010/11: surplus <strong>of</strong> $16.9 million).Balance sheetThe balance sheet (page 38) is dominatedby the State Collection to which works <strong>of</strong>art to the value <strong>of</strong> $15.3 million were addedduring the year. Included in property, plantand equipment are additions <strong>of</strong> $2.8 millionrepresenting the final stages <strong>of</strong> the 150 thanniversary gallery renewal project, includingthe new Contemporary exhibitions galleryand the Asian galleries at <strong>NGV</strong> International.These initiatives are being largely fundedthrough State Government grants andprivate philanthropy.The balance sheet also includes cash and otherfinancial assets <strong>of</strong> $48.8 million (<strong>2011</strong>: $49.9million). These funds are largely held for thepurchase <strong>of</strong> works <strong>of</strong> art, or other purposesas restricted by the donor or grantor. Thebalance <strong>of</strong> funds is available to meet the <strong>NGV</strong>’soperating and capital expenditure needs.FutureLooking forward to future years, the <strong>NGV</strong>is committed to increasing its revenuesfrom all sources, including exhibitionsand programming, and to managing itscost base carefully and prudently. Whileexternal economic factors are difficult topredict, it is intended that these strategieswill ensure a return to operating surplusesin future years. This is important as the<strong>NGV</strong> has accumulated operating deficits,primarily related to depreciation chargesnot covered by Government grants, andthe majority <strong>of</strong> revenue from fundraisingactivities is transferred to the Collection andInfrastructure Reserves. Accordingly, the <strong>NGV</strong>has limited capacity to fund future operations,or any significant capital expenditure, fromits reserves.FIVE YEAR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCEOperating revenueNotes20<strong>12</strong>$ '000s<strong>2011</strong>$ '000s2010$ '000s2009$ '000s2008$ '000sGovernment grants 1 42,834 43,216 41,628 41,645 40,267Trading revenue 19,303 17,939 21,273 19,374 18,144Operating expenses62,137 61,155 62,901 61,019 58,411Employee costs ( 23,085 ) ( 24,324 ) ( 22,495 ) ( 20,921 ) ( 19,625 )Other operating costs ( 40,652 ) ( 39,060 ) ( 38,398 ) ( 40,060 ) ( 39,284 )Operating result before depreciationand similar charges( 63,737 ) ( 63,384 ) ( 60,893 ) ( 60,981 ) ( 58,909 )( 1,600) ( 2,229 ) 2,008 38 ( 498 )Net depreciation and similar charges 2 ( <strong>12</strong>,284 ) ( 10,071 ) ( 10,607 ) ( 11,166 ) ( 11,163 )Operating result after depreciationand similar charges and before netincome from non-operating activitiesNet income from non-operating activities 3Fundraising activities – cash gifts,bequests and other receipts( 13,884 ) ( <strong>12</strong>,300 ) ( 8,599 ) ( 11,<strong>12</strong>8 ) ( 11,661 )10,444 9,825 6,102 <strong>12</strong>,174 11,707Fundraising activities – gifts in kind 4 3,520 17,197 6,731 2,559 3,302Investing activities 5 2,044 1,501 ( 1,199 ) ( 4,828 ) ( 1,759)Capital grants and similar income 6 2,847 688 ( 1,000 ) 2,380 22118,855 29,211 10,634 <strong>12</strong>,285 13,471Net result 4,971 16,911 2,035 1,157 1,810Other economic flows, other nonownerchanges in equity7 ( 2,326 ) 433,775 5,663 -Comprehensive result 2,645 450,686 7,698 1,157 1,810Notes1.

Depreciation is calculatedon a straight line basis at rates that allocate the asset’s value, less anyestimated salvage value, over its estimated useful life.Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the period <strong>of</strong> the leaseor the asset’s estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using thestraight line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values anddepreciation method are reviewed at the end <strong>of</strong> each annual reportingperiod. Note 8 provides details on the estimated useful lives that areused in the calculation <strong>of</strong> depreciation on property, plant and equipment.Where it is determined that the estimated useful life <strong>of</strong> an asset haschanged, the depreciation rate for that asset is adjusted accordingly.(F) (iii) Supplies and servicesSupplies and services expenses are recognised as an expense in thereporting period in which they are incurred.

Gains and lossesarising from changes in fair value are recognised directly in equity untilthe investment is disposed <strong>of</strong> or is determined to be impaired, at whichtime the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in equity isincluded in pr<strong>of</strong>it or loss for the period. Fair value is determined in themanner described in Note 15(g).(I) Non-Financial Assets(I)(i) InventoriesInventories are held for sale in the ordinary course <strong>of</strong> businessoperations and are measured at the lower <strong>of</strong> cost and netrealisable value.A provision for stock obsolesence is made when there is objectiveevidence that an inventory item may be economically impaired.(I)(ii) Prepayments and other assetsPrepayments and other assets represent payments in advance <strong>of</strong>receipt <strong>of</strong> goods or services or that part <strong>of</strong> expenditure made in oneaccounting period covering a term extending beyond that period.(I)(iii) Property, plant and equipmentLand and buildings are measured initially at cost, and subsequentlyat fair value. Assets such as heritage assets are measured at fairvalue with regards to the property’s highest and best use after dueconsideration is made for any legal or constructive restrictions imposedon the asset, public announcements or commitments made in relationto the intended use <strong>of</strong> the asset. The fair value <strong>of</strong> the heritage assetsthat the State intends to preserve because <strong>of</strong> their unique historicalattributes is measured at the replacement cost <strong>of</strong> the asset lesswhere applicable accumulated depreciation calculated on the basis <strong>of</strong>such cost to reflect the already consumed or expired future economicbenefits <strong>of</strong> the asset and any accumulated impairment.

Financial instruments (cont’d)61(c) Liquidity riskLiquidity risk would arise if the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> is unable tomeet its financial obligations as they fall due. The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Victoria</strong> operates under the Government fair payments policy <strong>of</strong> settlingfinancial obligations within 30 days and in the event <strong>of</strong> a dispute,making payments within 30 days from the date <strong>of</strong> resolution. It alsocontinuously manages risk through the monitoring <strong>of</strong> future cash flowsand maturities planning to ensure adequate holding <strong>of</strong> high quality liquidassets and dealing in highly liquid markets.The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>’s exposure to liquidity risk is deemedinsignificant based on prior periods’ data and the current assessment <strong>of</strong>risk. In the event <strong>of</strong> any unexpected event cash would be sourced fromliquidation <strong>of</strong> available-for-sale financial investments.Maximum exposure to liquidity risk is the carrying amounts <strong>of</strong> financialliabilities as disclosed in the face <strong>of</strong> the balance sheet.

The main exposures to market riskarise through price risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency risk.The principal financial instruments affected by these risks are financialThe <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> recognises that market activity,particularly in equity markets, can give rise to significant volatility in thevalue <strong>of</strong> financial assets and this risk is accepted and managed withinthe objectives <strong>of</strong> the investment strategy. In the 2009/10 financial year,global equity markets suffered significant declines with losses commonin most markets, including Australia.assets classified as available-for-sale, held in externally managedunitised trusts.This fall was reflected in the fair value <strong>of</strong> the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Victoria</strong>’s financial assets during the reporting period. In the subsequentThese funds are invested and managed in accordance with the <strong>National</strong><strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>’s investment strategy, which includes a variety <strong>of</strong>two financial years the market values <strong>of</strong> the financial assets classifiedas available-for-sale have shown some recovery.equity assets, inflation-sensitive assets, income assets and absolutereturnassets and distinguishes between the differing objectives andrisk pr<strong>of</strong>iles <strong>of</strong> funds held for the medium term and for the longer term.Such assets are stated at fair value which is generally approximated bymarket value. Gains and losses arising from the changes in fair valueTaking into account the current and future economic climate, the tablebelow discloses the sensitivity <strong>of</strong> the <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>’sfinancial assets to movements in the pricing <strong>of</strong> managed investmentsby shifts <strong>of</strong> +/- 5% and +/- 10%.are recognised in the carrying value <strong>of</strong> the assets.e) Interest rate riskInterest rate risk arises from the potential <strong>of</strong> changes in interestrates to affect the reported result. A fluctuation in interest rates mayalso give rise to changes in the fair value <strong>of</strong> financial instruments.The interest rate risk on cash at bank and bank deposits at call is notconsidered material to the reported result. The interest rate risk oncash managed funds is managed as part <strong>of</strong> the overall investmentstrategy which includes a variety <strong>of</strong> equity assets, inflation-sensitiveassets, income assets and absolute-return assets. Equity and propertymanaged funds have been excluded from this interest rate sensitivityanalysis due to these investments not being directly affected bychanges in interest rates. The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>’s exposure tointerest rate risks and the effective interest rates <strong>of</strong> financial assets andfinancial liabilities are as follows:

The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> makes purchases andsales in foreign currencies and reduces its risk by, wherever practical,preferring a certain outcome over an uncertain outcome and byminimising its exposure to exchange rate movements. Material foreigncurrency commitments, where the amount and timing <strong>of</strong> paymentare known, are hedged through the Treasury Corporation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>.The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>’s investment strategy also allowsfor investment in international equities (hedged and unhedged) andoverseas securities. This foreign currency risk is managed as part <strong>of</strong> theoverall investment strategy which includes a variety <strong>of</strong> equity assets,inflation-sensitive assets, income assets and absolute-return assets.

The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> considers that the carryingamount <strong>of</strong> financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in thefinancial statements to be a reasonable approximation <strong>of</strong> their fairvalues, either because <strong>of</strong> their short-term nature, or because they arevalued and can be traded in an active market.15.9: Comparison between carrying amount andfair valueThe <strong>National</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> considers the carrying amount <strong>of</strong>financial instrument assets and liabilities recorded in the financialstatements to be an approximation <strong>of</strong> their fair values, because <strong>of</strong> theshort-term nature <strong>of</strong> the financial instruments and the expectationthat they will be paid in full. Cash and deposits and financial assetsclassified as available for sale are classified as level 1. Financialinstruments are deemed level 1 where the fair value <strong>of</strong> the financialinstrument, with standard terms and conditions and traded in activeliquid markets, are determined with reference to quoted market prices.All other financial instruments are classified as level 2 where fair valueis determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observablefor the financial asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Subsequent eventsThere were no significant events occurring after the reporting date in 20<strong>12</strong> (<strong>2011</strong> – nil).56 51Comprehensive resultTotal comprehensive result is the change in equity for the period otherthan changes arising from transactions with owners. It is the aggregate<strong>of</strong> the net result and other non-owner changes in equity.Capital asset chargeThe capital asset charge represents the opportunity cost <strong>of</strong> capital investedin the non current physical assets used in the provision <strong>of</strong> outputs.CommitmentsCommitments include those operating, capital and other outsourcingcommitments arising from non-cancellable contractual orstatutory sources.Employee expensesEmployee expenses include all costs related to employment includingwages and salaries, leave entitlements, redundancy payments andsuperannuation contributions.Financial assetA financial asset is any asset that is:• c a s h ;• an equity instrument <strong>of</strong> another entity;• a contractual right:- to receive cash or another financial asset from another entity; or- to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entityunder conditions that are potentially favourable to the entity; or• a contract that will or may be settled in the entity’s own equityinstruments and is:- a non-derivative for which the entity is or may be obliged to receivea variable number <strong>of</strong> the entity’s own equity instruments; or- a derivative that will or may be settled other than by the exchange<strong>of</strong> a fixed amount <strong>of</strong> cash or another financial asset for a fixednumber <strong>of</strong> the entity’s own equity instruments.Grants and other transfersTransactions in which one entity provides goods, services, assets (orextinguishes a liability) or labour to another entity without receivingapproximately equal value in return. Grants can either be operating orcapital in nature. While grants by governments may result in the provision<strong>of</strong> some goods or services to the transferor, they do not give the transferor aclaim to receive directly benefits <strong>of</strong> approximately equal value. Receipt andsacrifice <strong>of</strong> approximately equal value may occur, but only by coincidence.For example, governments are not obliged to provide commensuratebenefits, in the form <strong>of</strong> goods or services, to particular taxpayers in returnfor their taxes. For this reason, grants are referred to by the AASB 118Revenue, as involuntary transfers and are termed non-reciprocal transfers.Grants can be paid as general purpose grants which refer to grants thatare not subject to conditions regarding their use. Alternatively, theymay be paid as specific purpose grants which are paid for a particularpurpose and/or have conditions attached regarding their use.Financial statementsDepending on the context <strong>of</strong> the sentence where the term ‘financialstatements’ is used, it may include only the main financial statements(i.e. comprehensive operating statement, balance sheet, cash flowstatements, and statement <strong>of</strong> changes in equity); or it may also be usedto replace the old term ‘financial report’ under the revised AASB 101Presentation <strong>of</strong> Financial Statements (Sept 2007), which means it mayinclude the main financial statements and the notes.Net resultNet result is a measure <strong>of</strong> financial performance <strong>of</strong> the operations forthe period. It is the net result <strong>of</strong> items <strong>of</strong> revenue, gains and expenses(including losses) recognised for the period, excluding those that areclassified as ‘other non-owner changes in equity’.Net result from transactions/net operating balanceNet result from transactions/net operating balance is a key fiscal aggregateand is revenue from transactions minus expenses from transactions. It is asummary measure <strong>of</strong> the ongoing sustainability <strong>of</strong> operations. It excludesgains and losses resulting from changes in price levels and other changes inthe volume <strong>of</strong> assets. It is the component <strong>of</strong> the change in net worth that isdue to transactions and can be attributed directly to government policies.Other economic flowsOther economic flows are changes in the volume or value <strong>of</strong> an assetor liability that do not result from transactions. It includes gains andlosses from disposals, revaluations and impairments <strong>of</strong> non-currentphysical and intangible assets; actuarial gains and losses arising fromdefined benefit superannuation plans; fair value changes <strong>of</strong> financialinstruments and agricultural assets; and depletion <strong>of</strong> natural assets(non-produced) from their use or removal. In simple terms, othereconomic flows are changes arising from market re measurements.PayablesIncludes short and long term trade debt and accounts payable, grantsand interest payable.Sales <strong>of</strong> goods and servicesRefers to revenue from the direct provision <strong>of</strong> goods and services andincludes exhibition and program admissions, retail sales, membershipsand sponsorships.Supplies and servicesSupplies and services represents the costs <strong>of</strong> running the <strong>National</strong><strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong> excluding employee benefits, depreciation <strong>of</strong>property, plant and equipment, use <strong>of</strong> premises provided free <strong>of</strong> chargeand the capital asset charge. These costs include costs <strong>of</strong> facilities,information services, cost <strong>of</strong> publications and merchandise sold,exhibitions, education and public programs.TransactionsTransactions are those economic flows that are considered to arise asa result <strong>of</strong> policy decisions, usually an interaction between two entitiesby mutual agreement. They also include flows within an entity such asdepreciation where the owner is simultaneously acting as the owner<strong>of</strong> the depreciating asset and as the consumer <strong>of</strong> the service providedby the asset. Taxation is regarded as mutually agreed interactionsbetween the government and taxpayers. Transactions can be in kind(e.g. assets provided/given free <strong>of</strong> charge or for nominal consideration)or where the final consideration is cash. In simple terms, transactionsarise from the policy decisions <strong>of</strong> the government.

The standard is:• Relative Humidity: 50 RH +/-5 %, with no more than 10% changewithin 24 hours• Temperature: 20 - 24 degrees C (set point 21.5) with no more than 4degree C change within 24 hours.In 2010, trials on overnight shut-<strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> air-conditioning systems (HVAC)in selected spaces at <strong>NGV</strong> International investigated the use <strong>of</strong> thebuilding’s thermal mass to maintain the standard environmentalconditions while reducing HVAC energy use. In the past, spacescontaining works <strong>of</strong> art at both <strong>NGV</strong> International and <strong>NGV</strong> Australiawere air conditioned and humidity-controlled 24 hours a day, 7 daysa week. The trials demonstrated that risk to the collections at <strong>NGV</strong>International from overnight shut-<strong>of</strong>f <strong>of</strong> HVAC is no different than thatin the full-time operating environment.The implementation <strong>of</strong> a new HVAC operating regime at <strong>NGV</strong>International commenced in <strong>2011</strong>, following work to ensure thesystems are capable <strong>of</strong> restarting whenever the upper or lower limits<strong>of</strong> temperature and humidity ranges are approached.7.
