Artists Inspired by Iconic Christchurch Space Artists inspired by iconic Christchurch space Chris Heaphy Sarah Huges When two renowned New Zealand artists were approached to help transform Christchurch’s iconic Cathedral Square, they knew it was going to be an exciting thing to be part of. Artists Chris Heaphy and Sara Hughes were invited to create artworks as part of Christchurch City Council’s Transitional Cathedral Square project. The project, in collaboration with Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu and Te Runanga o Ngāi Tahu, aims to reactivate the Square as a welcoming space, more than two years after it was closed off to the public following the February 2011 earthquake. The art works will surround a performance area, seating and extensive plantings. The installations will be moved and reconfigured as building progress and access needs in the area change. Heaphy and Hughes were charged with producing engaging art that respected the past of the high-profile area, including Ngāi Tahu connections, while also responding to its present state and future aspirations. Recognising the Square as a transitional space, they were given the opportunity to create work that would reflect this. The pair responded to the brief with bold, vibrant optimism-inducing art installations that will activate and frame the Transitional Square area. Heaphy says he has enjoyed creating works for a city he feels a close connection with. “Christchurch is a special place for me, having studied at Canterbury University and living here for nearly a decade. I started my career as an exhibiting artist with the Jonathan Smart Gallery, and I still maintain a these strong connections to Christchurch and Te Waka A Maui − The South Island. “The city and its people have gone through so much in the last few years and I hope the work expresses this, and also an awareness of the many changes and restarts that have occurred since humans have occupied this area,” Heaphy says, “I developed my ideas through the stories that surround Christchurch and Cathedral Square, and through the many and varied histories that exist. Those histories are interwoven into the work, along with new narratives unfolding in front of us now.” Heaphy’s work conveys strength through vivid ordered pattern and dazzling colour. A bold, stretching wall of signs, symbols and geometric architectural elements has been digitally printed onto hoarding panels. He has also created a whare of scaffolding, plastic bread baskets and living plants. Hughes also acknowledges the rich heritage of the area, with her art inspired by historical embroidery, tukutuku panels and roof tiles of The Christ Church Cathedral. Working with these starting points, her plan takes new directions, activating the space with a towering flag wall and hurricane fences transformed into vibrant geometric designs. Hughes says she was very affected by the greyness and emptiness of Cathedral Square. “I wanted to bring colour and energy into the square as a way to welcome people back. I am particularly interested in colour for its emotional and psychological effects on people. Discovering the flag poles that were already in the location sparked an idea of a giant flag wall of vibrant colour that conveyed a spectrum of meaning; encompassing the political and the celebratory. “I have a strong interest in collections and histories of an area – when I was asked to work on this project I felt drawn towards the Johnstone collection of art and design, housed at the University of Canterbury. This was a starting point for developing my designs for the ‘put in cup’ hurricane fence designs. I have previously created two large installations for the Christchurch Art Gallery and this new project has allowed me to further connect with the city.” Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu Kaiwhakahaere Tā Mark Solomon says, “We are confident these thought-provoking works will help people reconnect with Cathedral Square as it moves into the future”. The ChristChurch Cathedral and Cathedral Square are iconic symbols of Ōtautahi / Christchurch and important reminders of the city’s Church of England roots. For Ngāi Tahu the area also serves as a reminder that the first Anglican Church in greater Christchurch was a Ngāi Tahu whare karakia (church) in Puāri at Koukourārata / Port Levy. “Ngāi Tahu would like to congratulate both Sara Hughes and Chris Heaphy (Ngāi Tahu) for incorporating both church and Māori symbols into their contemporary art,” says Tā Mark. Christchurch Art Gallery curator Ken Hall sees Heaphy and Hughes’ works as an antidote to a lot of what Christchurch has been through. “They are amazingly powerful and optimistic, suggesting a new start, visual power packs that will bring this space back to life. Both artists have put so much vitality and care into their works, which I think shows their being very nicely attuned to what we’re ready for in Christchurch right now. It’s art that lifts the spirit. I think it will offer a boost to all of us.” Mayor Bob Parker says it will be great to see the long-standing project came to fruition, and see the Square reinvigorated as the cultural heart of the city. “The Square holds a very special place in the heart of anyone who has lived in, or visited, Christchurch. This spectacular art work is part of an exciting new phase for this space that is so synonymous with this city, recognising the importance of history, while looking forward with hope and optimism. It will be wonderful to see The Square reclaimed as a place for people.” Artists Fact File: Chris Heaphy Born: 1965, of Ngāi Tahu descent Education: Bachelor of Fine Arts (University of Canterbury), Masters in Fine Arts (RMIT University, Melbourne) Recognition: Awarded the Te Waka Toi Grant in 1993, a Creative New Zealand Grant in 1999, and the Olivia Spencer-Bower Fellowship in 1995.

  • Paradigm Shift Five-Year Strategic Plan 2005-2010 June 2006 3 Garry Moore Christchurch of Mayor
    Paradigm Shift Five-year Strategic Plan 2005-2010 July 2006 VISION The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu will take a key leadership role in making Christchurch’s Cultural Precinct and Worcester Boulevard the most visited cultural tourism site in New Zealand. The Gallery is ideally placed to take this lead with its iconic building, strategic location at the heart of the Cultural Precinct and the Gallery’s programmes inviting visitors to live the Precinct’s core values of expanding cultural horizons and enriching senses. The Gallery wants to grow the public’s perception of art as it commits to new audiences by building a new, stimulating visitor experience and develop the brand. The Gallery recognises its key audiences are the families/whanau of Christchurch, international visitors to the City, domestic visitors, educational groups and special audiences. The Gallery strives to connect people with art – emotionally and intellectually. We celebrate art and the creative spirit. The Gallery knows where it stands and has global reach. The Gallery educates, inspires discovery and preserves the legacy of artistic achievement for the people of Canterbury and New Zealand through collecting, presenting, interpreting and conserving quality works of art. The Gallery wants to be recognised locally, nationally and internationally as innovative, with quality collections and programmes, and for the enjoyment and appreciation of art it brings all its audiences. The Gallery will set a standard of excellence in all its endeavours. FOREWORD Change is always a difficult process as it challenges us to think outside our familiar boundaries. It takes courage, commitment and tenacity to enact change, exactly what the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu has done during the last six months with the Paradigm Shift.

  • Strategy and Policy Committee Report Back on Attendance at the Emergency Management Conference
    STRATEGY AND POLICY COMMITTEE 7 MARCH 2013 REPORT 5 (1215/52/IM) REPORT BACK ON ATTENDANCE AT THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE – FEBRUARY 2012 1. Purpose of Report To report back to all Councillors on the Conference including the subjects covered and an opinion of the value of attendance by Elected Members. 2. Purpose of Report It is recommended that the Strategy and Policy Committee 1. Receive the information. 3. Details of the Conference On February 22nd 2011 I was attending an Emergency Management Conference. Guest speakers spoke of how lucky Christchurch was to have survived the previous September 4th quake with no loss of life. We broke for lunch and at 12.51pm Christchurch suffered another major earthquake. This time it was not so lucky and it became obvious, from the experts in the room that this would be serious. The conference was cancelled and I went home to watch the grim news unfold on television. In February 2012 the conference reconvened. This time there was much to discuss. I was unfortunately not able to attend all sessions as a fellow councillor who was to also attend and do some of the sessions was not able to be there. The first day started with keynote speakers: Clive Manley, head of Auckland Council Civil Defence, Hon Chris Tremain Minister of Civil Defence and Mayor Bob Parker. Bob told us 71,000 homes were affected, 40,000 chemical toilets were distributed, half a million tons of silt was moved and $1billion of damage was done to the waste water system alone. After morning tea we heard from Dr Richard Sharpe of BECA.

  • Christchurch City Holdings Limited Is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Christchurch City Council
    Christchurch City Holdings Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Christchurch City Council cChristchurchc Cityh Holdingsl Investing in the city’s infrastructure The primary purpose of Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is to invest in and promote the establishment of key infrastructure, and this now extends to assisting the Council in the rebuild and redevelopment of Christchurch following the Canterbury earthquakes. CCHL will continue to invest in existing and new infrastructural assets such as the electricity distribution network, the airport, port, transport and high speed broadband. CCHL’s strategic approach is to identify infrastructural needs that are not or cannot be filled by the private sector or existing Council operations, then take a role in helping to meet those needs through joint ventures, public-private partnerships, establishing new entities or simply acting as a catalyst for others. Appropriate investment is encouraged and, if necessary, facilitated by CCHL in its trading companies when significant upgrades are required to existing infrastructural assets – recent examples being the establishment and funding of Enable Services, and the provision of some of the funding requirements for the construction of the new airport terminal. CCHL is supportive of its companies as they deal with post-earthquake repairs and rebuild of assets and markets. 2 About CCHL Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is the commercial and investment arm of Christchurch City Council. The company is responsible for managing the Council’s investment in eight fully or partly-owned Council-controlled trading organisations – Orion New Zealand Ltd, Christchurch International Airport Ltd, Lyttelton Port Company Ltd, Enable Services Ltd, City Care CHRISTCHURCH Ltd, Red Bus Ltd, EcoCentral Ltd and Selwyn CITY HOLDINGS Plantation Board Ltd.

  • Media Release Christchurch's Roadmap for Infrastructure Rebuild
    Media Release Christchurch's roadmap for infrastructure rebuild Release Date: 07 September 2012 The five year schedule for the rebuild of Christchurch's earthquake-damaged roads and underground services was released today by the Minister for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Gerry Brownlee and Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker. The plan includes a map setting out indicative timeframes for infrastructure repairs in different areas of the city. The work has been prioritised based on a range of factors, with the aim being to first fix the worst-affected areas that impact on the most people. "This work is one piece of a much bigger and complex city-wide recovery programme," says Minister Brownlee. "But it is highly significant as underground services need to be rebuilt and future-proofed so that the city's recovery is founded on a secure infrastructure base. "It will take another four years to rebuild Christchurch's horizontal infrastructure and deciding what comes first is not easy. We've used a robust model to prioritise the work and that's what we're launching today. Of course, things might change as work progresses, but residents can now have a good idea of when we'll be working in their neighbourhood." Mayor Parker says the works schedule underpins confidence in the city’s recovery and reinvestment in the South Island's largest city. "People will begin to see a more resilient and forward-looking city emerging from the legacy of the earthquakes," he says. "The schedule we are launching today gives certainty for the future; but we have already made good progress on the rebuild and work has been ongoing for more than a year now.

    Big quake aftershocks plague New Zealand city 8 September 2010, By ROB GRIFFITH , Associated Press Writer Christchurch since Saturday's 7.1 magnitude earthquake wrecked hundreds of buildings. Nobody was reported injured by the latest temblor. "My guts is just churning up here. When will this thing end? It is like living in a maelstrom," Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker said as workers streamed from the city's emergency headquarters. "We have got staff in tears ... power is out and a lot of people are very, very churned up by that," he told the NewstalkZB radio station. "We were restarting to think maybe, just maybe, we are over the worst of this, and now we have had this shocking event," Parker said. "This is a hammer blow to the spirit of a lot of people."
