Pierre Peeters Gallery presents fine examples of New Zealand paintings, works on paper and sculpture which span from the nineteenth century to the present day. For all enquiries ph (09)377 4832 or contact us at [email protected] www.ppg.net.nz Cover illustration: Len Lye, Self Portrait with Night Tree: 1947 W .S Melvin circa 1880 Wet Jacket Arm: Milford Sound Initialled Lower right ‘WSM’ Oil on opaque glass 170 x 280 mm W. S Melvin circa 1880 Lake Manapouri Initialled Lower left ‘ WSM’ Oil on opaque glass 170 x 280 mm These two works by W.S Melvin exemplify the decorative landscape painting of nineteenth century painters of the period working in New Zealand. They knowingly utilise the decorative strength of adjacent reds , soft purples and greens . Painted on what was commonly called ‘milk glass’, popular in nineteenth century applied arts, here Melvin employs this luminous medium for his deftly realised depictions of the picturesque South Island. W.S. Melvin was a nineteenth century painter who exhibited with the Otago Art Society from 1887–1913; and whose work featured in the NZ and South Seas Exhibition in Dunedin 1889–90. John Barr Clarke Hoyte (1835-1913) Coastal Inlet c.1870 Watercolour 390 x 640 mm John Barr Clarke Hoyte could produce airy, sweeping views of the picturesque, but in works like this, he combines the atmosphere and dampness of the elements of a North Island inlet, with a homely, pragmatic and altogether, endearing aspect.

  • New Zealand Painting
    New Zealand Painting 1 f g. • w w. H i 1 New Zealand Painting Since 1957 the Auckland City Art Gallery has assembled an annual anthology of contemporary New Zealand painting. These exhibitions have particular objectives: to gather from all parts of the country the work of thinking artists being painters who are not content to continue year after year with an adopted formula and repeating this ad nauseum, nor those who switch styles as easily and frequently as a man changes his coat; but rather, the artists who think about painting and consider it a vital means of communicating ideas. And not so much other people's ideas (although all sensitive painters are aware of their debt to history and the work of other creative artists) but, the deeply felt and thought-out ideas of the artist's personal responses to the world. This approach to painting calls for tenacity of thought and quite a bit of courage. Consequently, it is surely the duty of a public art gallery to foster these vital and thinking artists within our national life. To encourage their development and growth for the national good — if for no other reason. These exhibitions are then offered as travelling units. Galleries accepting the exhibition share the cost of touring. As these costs are steadily rising and no grant-in-aid is involved, organizations presenting this exhibition will need to exert even greater efforts to ensure the continuance of the exhibition on a travelling basis. Here is a visible demonstration of some of the current trends and movements in New Zealand painting.

  • Redressing Theo Schoon's Absence from New Zealand Art History
    DOUBLE VISION: REDRESSING THEO SCHOON'S ABSENCE FROM NEW ZEALAND ART HISTORY A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Art History in the University of Canterbury by ANDREW PAUL WOOD University of Canterbury 2003 CONTENTS Abstract .......................................... ii Acknowledgments ................................. iii Chapter 1: The Enigma of Theo Schoon .......................... 1 Chapter2: Schoon's Early Life in South-East Asia 1915-1927 ....... .17 Chapter 3: Schoon in Europe 1927-1935 ......................... 25 Chapter4: Return to the Dutch East-Indies: The Bandung Period 1936-1939 ...................... .46 Chapter 5: The First Decade in New Zealand 1939-1949 ............ 63 Chapter 6: The 1950s-1960s and the Legacy ......................91 Chapter 7: Conclusion ...................................... 111 List of Illustrations ................................ 116 Appendix 1 Selective List of Articles Published on Maori Rock Art 1947- 1949 ...................................... 141 Appendix 2 The Life of Theo Schoon: A Chronology ................................... .142 Bibliography ..................................... 146 ABSTRACT The thesis will examine the apparent absence of the artist Theo Schoon (Java 1915- Sydney 1985) from the accepted canon ofNew Zealand art history, despite his relationship with some of its most notable artists, including Colin McCahon, Rita Angus and Gordon Walters. The thesis will also readdress Schoon's importance to the development of modernist art in New Zealand and Australia, through a detailed examination of his life, his development as an artist (with particular attention to his life in the Dutch East-Indies, and his training in Rotterdam, Netherlands), and his influence over New Zealand's artistic community. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Acknowledgment and thanks are due the following: My thesis supervisor Jonathan Mane-Wheoke, without whose breadth of knowledge and practical wisdom, this thesis would not have been possible.

  • The Dream of Joseph: Practices of Identity in Pacific Art
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ScholarSpace at University of Hawai'i at Manoa The Dream of Joseph: Practices of Identity in Pacific Art Nicholas Thomas for Rangihiroa Panoho And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren, and they hated him yet the more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? Or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and his words.
