    1 NEWTON I, 1960–64 In 1960 McCahon and his family moved from Titirangi to the inner- city suburb of Newton, in those days a predominantly working-class and Polynesian neighbourhood. The award of the first Hay’s Art Prize to McCahon for Painting (1958), a radical abstract, caused a furore in newspapers and much unwelcome negative publicity for the artist. After a year of little painting, he embarked on the Gate series (including Here I give thanks to Mondrian, p. 10), an important new series of geometrical abstractions, exhibited at The Gallery (Symonds Street, Auckland) in 1961; a further extension of the series was the sixteen-panel The Second Gate Series (1962, pp. 51–53), a collaboration with John Caselberg (who supplied the Old Testament texts) which addressed the threat of nuclear annihilation; it was exhibited in Christchurch with other work in 1962. Lack of critical enthusiasm for this abstract/text work led McCahon to reconsider his direction, resulting in a ‘return’ (his word) to landscape painting in a large open Northland series (1962, p. 33, 59) and Landscape theme and variations (1963, pp. 60–61), two eight- panel series, exhibited at The Gallery simultaneously with a joint Woollaston/McCahon retrospective at Auckland City Art Gallery. In 1964, after twelve years at Auckland City Art Gallery, McCahon resigned to join the staff of Auckland University’s Elam School of Fine Arts, where he taught from 1964 to 1971. His first exhibition after joining Elam, Small Landscapes and Waterfalls (Ikon Fine Arts, 1964), proved to be both aesthetically and commercially successful.

    AUCKLAND UNIVERSITY PRESS — 2012 CATALOGUE Words that make worlds. Arguments that change minds. Ideas that illuminate. We publish books that make a difference. Summer 2012 BA: AN INSIDER’S GUIDE Rebecca Jury BA: An Insider’s Guide is the essential book for all those considering study or about to embark on their arts degree. 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. Rebecca Jury graduated with a BA (English and Mass Communication) from Canterbury University in 2008. Her grade average was excellent! Since completing her degree she has worked as a university tutor, a youth counsellor and a high-school teacher.

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 .

    ART + OBJECT 2017 has undoubtedly been a dynamic year at Art+Object, as well as for the wider New Zealand art world. We are fortunate to be part of a healthy, thriving arts community that really does offer something for everyone, across a variety of art forms. This year, along with our usual catalogues of Important Paintings and Contemporary Art, New Collectors, Decorative Arts and Rare Books, we have been favoured with the sale of some fabulous private collections. Visionary collectors like Anne Coney and Glenn Schaeffer, in taking the brave decision to sell their collections at auction, provide viewers with a wonderful opportunity to admire and acquire. Thank you to everyone who has taken part in our auction program this year, we put real effort into making our auction videos, organising talks and events and we love it when you watch on-line, or come along to viewings and auctions. Our talk with collector Glenn Schaeffer in October was given to a packed house, with a large number of interested collectors attending to hear from Mr Schaeffer, a significant international art collector. The year cannot pass without making mention of the wonderful success of the Estate of Michael Illingworth auction. The enthusiasm shown by the market for work by this legendary artist was unprecedented, resulting in one of the most successful auctions in our ten year history. We have enjoyed working with a number of brand partners this year. We’ve been serving freshly brewed Allpress coffee at our weekend viewings, which was particularly well-received on cold wintry viewing days, and it certainly feels like we’ve had plenty of those this year.
