  • Final Funds Needed for Spectacular City Sculpture
    News Release 19 June 2014 Page 1 of 12 Final Funds Needed For Spectacular City Sculpture The SCAPE Public Art Trust of Christchurch has launched a funding initiative to meet the final cost of installing a spectacular Neil Dawson sculpture, Fanfare, at the city’s gateway beside the northern motorway by the end of the year. Fanfare will be New Zealand’s largest public artwork, 24 metres high and weighing 25 tonnes, and featuring 360 wind-powered pinwheels able to be lit up on festive occasions. SCAPE Public Art Director, Deborah McCormick, said all but $360,000 of the $3.3 million needed to install the sculpture has already been raised and the latest initiative is intended to cover the final portion. “People and businesses can join our Fan Club and contribute set amounts from $1,000, $3,000 and $5,000, with a range of benefits and privileges, or donate any amount they wish. Supporters will have a share in an iconic sculptural legacy for the city and make a unique contribution to our changing future landscape.” Deborah McCormick said. Fanfare was made by Christchurch sculptor Neil Dawson for the City of Sydney to celebrate New Year in 2005 and was displayed hanging from the city’s harbour bridge. It was later gifted by the City of Sydney to the Christchurch City Council, which partnered with SCAPE Public Art to re-assemble the sculpture and raise funds to pay for its new installation. The sculptor has produced other large-scale sculptures, including Chalice in Cathedral Square, Christchurch, Ferns in Civic Square, Wellington and Feather from Afar in the International Finance Centre, Pudong, Shanghai.

In particular we are proud to offer an excellent collection of New Zealand photography from a private collector together with many other interesting consignments. Since returning to the office in May we have completed two auctions that had been on hold since April. Both of these events were remarkably successful and we would like to warmly thank our vendors who remained patient during the lockdown and all those who supported us at the viewings and attended the auctions, whether on-line at home or in person. It is extremely heartening to see that even in the most tumultuous of times, there is still a desire for art in our lives. During the recent lockdown period, like many I agreed with the slogans that suggested we should send 2020 back to where it came from. If only we could rewind and start again! The effect on businesses and families, the many disappointments of cancelled events and travel, will be felt for some time to come.
