My Place in Art Teaching Kit
My Place in Art Teaching Kit Summer in Nelson, 1960 Irvine Major, Oil on Canvas Unit Developed and Compiled by Esther McNaughton, Suter Educator Education services and programmes at The Suter are supported by the Ministry of Education under the Learning Experiences Outside of the Classroom (LEOTC) funding. 1 Introduction: My Place in Art In this lesson students will explore landscape art which shows our region. They will think about their associations with local places before looking at why and how artists show landscapes in art. The students will develop an artwork showing themselves in a landscape of their choice using techniques observed in the artworks on show. Relevant Curriculum Areas: Visual Arts, Social Studies, English. Duration: 75- 90 minutes depending on level. Levels: Adaptable for Years 1-10 Associated Suter Exhibition: Milk and Honey The rhetoric used to describe Aotearoa/New Zealand from a colonial perspective has always been laced with Biblical references. This is God’s own country: a South Pacific Eden full of hope, bounty and peace. This exhibition examines mythmaking involved in forging the history and vision of our country and Nelson as a region. Tracing the aesthetic influence of the top of the South Island, Milk and Honey displays the historical impact the region has had as a subject for art. From John Bevan Ford’s adaptation of one of the first European images of Maori and Aotearoa in Golden Bay and Tall Men on Hill Tops to Joe Sheehan’s contemporary approach to traditional Māori pakohe (argillite), this region has been stimulating artists for centuries. -
Beyond the Lens the Marti & Gerrard Friedlander Collection
BEYOND THE LENS THE MARTI & GERRARD FRIEDLANDER COLLECTION Marti Friedlander’s contribution to the development of contemporary New Zealand art has been quite simply outstanding and it is with great honour that we bring you this catalogue, Beyond the Lens - The Marti and Gerrard Friedlander Collection. Celebrated and respected for her photography, but also for her generosity, in later life Marti became known to many of us through the causes that she and Gerrard supported with great passion. Breast cancer, issues of Māoridom and helping young people – all these were causes close to their hearts. Marti was an unforgettable character to those that knew her. Curious and direct, with a distinctive gravelly voice and an accent that gave away her Northern Hemisphere start in life. I was most interested to read Kathlene Fogarty’s account of Driving with Marti, mainly as I had previously assumed that Marti didn’t drive. Having lived and worked in Parnell for years, she was a most familiar figure to locals; striding purposefully up Brighton Road and determinedly around the village, frequently pausing to chat and always stopping for coffee. Known for her strong personality and love of people, Marti’s curiosity for the strange new land she came to with husband Gerrard in 1958 was borne out in the photographs she took. Over the next fifty years she famously photographed not only the landscape but it’s people – both the ordinary and the extraordinary - in a time well before the notion of celebrity existed. Her visual record of our country in a time of change and maturation is invaluable. -

SOLICITORS Messrs. WILDING, PERRY & ACLAND FOREWORD a The Annual Autumn Exhibition this year has attracted a greater number of exhibitors, with a wider variety of work than in recent years. You will find that many of the paintings re present the more contemporary conception of art. We are anxious to introduce you to the work of these young New Zealand artists, and while you may perhaps find some of them difficult to follow, we think you will find many of them exciting, colourful, and vigorous. During the last hundred years, the great French painters Cezanne, Gauguin, Renoir, and later the English painters and sculptors Sutherland, Nash, and Henry Moore, to mention a few, have broken away from the traditional methods of ex pression, and the work of artists has become more individual. -

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.
