Thomas Ruff , h.l.k. 03, 2000 Welcome to our fi nal Important Paintings and Contemporary Art catalogue for 2019. Although we are all looking forward to the summer (if it ever arrives!), it is hard to believe that 2019 is drawing to a close. It’s been a busy year for our small team, with some notable auctions. We have achieved new auction records for Milan Mrkusich, John Pule, Barry Lett and Seung Yul Oh and held our fi rst auction dedicated to the work of one artist alone. Our book department, most ably led by Pam Plumbly, has had a stellar year off ering a number of private collections. Rare Antarctic Books from the Library of Richard Reaney and Th e Christopher Parr Collection saw items of great historical signifi cance pass through our rooms, with unprecedented prices achieved. On December 10, the fi nal auction of the year will be Th e Ron Keam Collection, including signifi cant paintings, books, letters and ephemera relating to the Tarawera eruption and the surrounding geothermal area; its a wonderful insight into an important part of our country and it’s history. Our early November auctions, Beyond the Lens, Th e Marti and Gerrard Friedlander Collection and Celebrating Colin McCahon were a great success. I would particularly like to thank the generous people who participated in our public programme over the weekend viewing: Judy Millar, Peter Simpson, Len Bell and Kathleen Fogarty. Th e viewing and talks were well-attended and thank you to everyone who came along – I hope you enjoyed it. We were also fortunate to have the support of our partners Seresin Estate wine, Taittinger Champagne and Allpress Espresso – which really kept us going through a busy weekend viewing. Within the pages of this catalogue is a wonderful selection of contemporary New Zealand art. Of particular note is the important painting by Gordon Walters Untitled, 1977 (lot 62). We are also delighted to off er works from the Toi Collection (lots 73–79) and works from the Estate of Simon Manchester (lots 80–92). Simon was a great friend of Art+Object, a prolifi c collector, with an unbridled passion for fi ne art and ceramics. Th e fi rst fi ve lots of this auction are being sold in support of Auckland Pride and no buyer’s premium applies. We look forward to Art+Object seeing you at the viewing.

  • JACQUELINE FAHEY B. 1929, Timaru
    GOW LANGSFORD GALLERY JACQUELINE FAHEY b. 1929, Timaru Jaqueline Fahey’s paintings collide portraiture with suburban landscapes to create riotously colourful compositions that revel in the chaos of domesticity. Married and a mother to three early in her painting career, the stifling gendered society of 1950s and 1960s New Zealand saw Fahey adopt unconventional colour, technique, and subject matter to reflect and actively challenge the status quo of the gender divide. Yet embedded in the artist’s pugnacious approach is a great level of affection for the women and relationships portrayed, evident in the careful detail bestowed on traditionally ‘female’ interests – clothing, interior textiles, bouquets- elevating the decorative female space above the austere settings more familiar to portraiture. Her distinctive painting style is recognisable for a raucous use of colour, with often haphazard use of perspectival space to force the viewer into the claustrophobia of the female experience. You can hear Fahey’s paintings. Expertly realised portraits are candid in their expressions – characters are shown mouth open, mid argument, or gazing off absentmindedly into the distance. Glimpses of TV sets, record players, and radios are combined with closely observed wine glasses, cups of tea, and bottles of gin. The clamour of crockery and conversation rings through the paintings and spills out into our space as they do into the painted gardens visible through open windows. Later bodies of work see Fahey applying her distinctive flare to urban environments and urban characters; translating domestic politics to their manifestation in the public environment. Born in Timaru in 1929, Fahey began her painting education in earnest at sixteen, at the Canterbury College School of Art, now Ilam.

In 10 steps, Jury introduces readers to everything from choosing courses (just like putting together a personalised gourmet sandwich), setting up a study space and doing part-time work to turning up at lectures and tutorials and actually reading readings. In particular, she focuses on planning, work–life balance, study habits, succeeding at essays and exams and sorting out a life afterwards. Recently emerged from the maelstrom of university, Jury offers the inside word on doing well there.

O’Brien’s poems have a thoughtful musicality, a shambling romance, a sense of humour, an eye on the horizon. On Raoul Island we meet a mechanical rat; on Waiheke, the horses of memory thunder down the course; and in Doubtful Sound, the first guitar music heard in New Zealand spills over the waves .

Cover: lot 256, Dennis Knight Turner, Exhibition Thoughts on the Bev & Murray Gow Collection from John Gow and Ben Plumbly I remember vividly when I was twelve years old, hopping in the car with Dad, heading down the dusty rural Te Miro Road to Cambridge to meet the train from Auckland. There was a special package on this train, a painting that my parents had bought and I recall the ceremony of unwrapping and Mum and Dad’s obvious delight, but being completely perplexed by this ‘artwork’. Now I look at the Woollaston watercolour and think how farsighted they were. Dad’s love of art was fostered at Auckland University through meeting Diane McKegg (nee Henderson), the daughter of Louise Henderson. As a student he subsequently bought his first painting from Louise, an oil on paper, Rooftops Newmarket. After marrying Beverley South, their mutual interest in the arts ensured the collection’s growth. They visited exhibitions in the Waikato and Auckland and because Mother was a soprano soloist, and a member of the Hamilton Civic Bev and Murray Gow Choir, concert trips to Auckland, Tauranga, New Plymouth, Gisborne and other centres were in their Orakei home involved.

    The Newsletter issue 6 – WINTER / TAKURUA 2014 Matariki Aratoi’s Matariki celebration programme features limited edition prints and original drawings by Bronwyn Waipuka-Callander. Bronwyn writes: Matariki is considered a primordial part of Māori culture, a significant time for Tangata Whenua to come together to reflect on the past and future. It symbolises rebirth, growth and togetherness, elements which are fundamental to our existence and connects us to Whenua ... our mother, Papatūānuku… Traditional Māori culture aligns women with Papatūānuku. Women are regarded as the bearer for the Iwi and its preservation, therefore to be protected and guarded with respect. Mana Whenua; Taku Kai, Taku Oranga can be seen as a celebration, as well as a tribute, to their roles as mothers, nurturers, life bearers and protectors of succeeding generations. ‘Kaitiaki o ngā Mana Whenua’ Bronwyn Waipuka-Callander Mana Whenua – Taku Kai, Taku Oranga 18 May-6 July 2014 Bronwyn Waipuka-Callander portrait 1, at her opening ‘Mana Whenua: Taku Kai-Taku Oranga,’ 18 May, with kids craft workshop.

  • Ja Cqueline Fahey
    SAY SOMETHING! JACQUELINE FAHEY FAHEY SOMETHING! JACQUELINE SAY In an era when women were often silenced and side-lined, Jacqueline Fahey’s voice was distinctive and unapologetic. Speaking up is important, but saying something worthwhile matters too. Jacqueline Fahey was one of the first New Zealand artists to paint from a feminist perspective. Here, her psychologically charged domestic scenes of the 1970s, in which she unflinchingly surveyed her own private reality, are revisited by contemporary feminist authors. At once familiar and unsettling, these paintings overflow with love, loss, conflict and quiet despair, and bristle with all the intensity of domestic life.

Our clients as sellers and purchasers have appreciated this clarity of direction and the result has been pre-auction exhibitions and catalogues where connections between works, genres and periods can be coherently made. Our final major catalogue is also an opportunity to voice our thanks to all our clients for their support in our launch year. When the dust settles on 2007 it is our hope that the wider art market will view the launch of ART+OBJECT as a stimulating new force for the good and an organization whose philosophy adds much more value than simply managing the passing parade of artwork for sale. We are grateful that so many sellers have entrusted us with their precious artworks and that buyers also choose to build their collections at A+O auctions. Thanks also to the writers who have contributed to our catalogues over the course of the year.
