Anyone in Australia who loves art owes McCulloch an enormous debt. It was not just that as a critic and a mentor he was pivotal in the careers of iconic Australian artists. His career as an arts administrator in a breathtakingly diverse range of roles leaves a legacy that is rare in any field of creative endeavour. I had not realised, for example, that the wealth of regional galleries that we have here in Victoria (and beyond) are due in no small part to McCulloch's vision. In chapter 9, 'The Australian Public Gallery Movement, James credits McCulloch as an advocate, mediator, critic and adviser whose belief in the valuable role played by regional galleries was underpinned by a strong philosophical basis. In 1978, on behalf of sixteen public galleries spread across Victoria, he declared that 'they represent a general, nationwide movement towards the decentralisation of culture through the healthy growth of locally established bodies.'
It hadn't always been so.
A visit to the (revived) Warrnambool Gallery's website tells the story:
Each one of those galleries, and more besides, is thriving today.
