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. Neil Dawson said he was delighted that Fanfare has returned to feature prominently in his home city. It will be erected on a prominent site at Chaney’s Corner on the northern edge of Christchurch, creating a welcoming and impressive entrance to the city.

Fanfare is a huge public sculpture, 20 metres in diameter and 24 metres high with 360 wind-powered “pinwheels” over its surface, each able to be lit for night display. It will be New Zealand’s largest public sculpture and elevate Canterbury to the global arts stage in recognition of a unique and spectacular piece of public sculpture. What is SCAPE Public Art’s role in Fanfare? SCAPE Public Art is working with sculptor Neil Dawson and the Christchurch City Council to make the installation a success, including site selection, approvals, sponsorship and fundraising, production of a book, marketing, publicity, community engagement and project management.

Once installed, Fanfare will be New Zealand’s largest sculpture on public display. Fanfare has 360 separate wind-powered “pinwheels” covering the surface of the structure. Each of the 1 metre wide pinwheels spins freely in the wind, and the sculpture will be lit up in response to special occasions throughout the Christchurch and Canterbury calendar. Last night, SCAPE Public Art launched the Fan Club fundraising campaign to raise the remaining $360,000 in the next 3 months to install Fanfare. This fundraising campaign is the final step towards the installation of Fanfare. The total asset cost of the sculpture is $3.3 million, and SCAPE Public Art has successfully secured 89% of this amount. With only 11% to go, SCAPE Public Art is so close to being able to install Fanfare, which makes this fundraising campaign absolutely crucial in order to install Fanfare by the end of 2014. Fanfare was kindly gifted to the Christchurch City Council by the City of Sydney in 2007. Fanfare was originally commissioned to play a spectacular part in Sydney’s 2005 New Year Celebrations, and was lit up after being suspended from the Sydney Harbour Bridge. At this time when Christchurch has lost many of its landmarks, Fanfare promises to play an important role in creating a new and dynamic entranceway to the city, and will elevate Christchurch and Canterbury onto the global art stage. Deborah McCormick, Director of SCAPE Public Art, the producers of Fanfare, says, “To visualize the journey of Fanfare and now arrive at this pivotal time is an enormous vote of confidence for our work, reputation and the commitment by so many extraordinary News Release 19 June 2014 Page 4 of 12 people to make this a reality. Fanfare's uplifting soaring presence will help shape and inspire a deep purposeful bond and strong integration of the Canterbury Community and the Arts”. Christchurch Mayor, Lianne Dalziel, says she is pleased the gift from the City of Sydney now has a home. “It will make a real statement about Christchurch located at the entranceway to the City. It is a sculpture that speaks to the future,” says the Mayor. Neil Dawson, the sculptor of Fanfare, is delighted that Fanfare is to be installed in his home town of Christchurch in a prominent site. “The installation of Fanfare at Chaney's Corner will be the culmination of a ten year Trans-Tasman project. The sculpture began as a celebration for a New Year in Sydney. It will now have a permanent home celebrating the re-birth of Christchurch” Dawson says. Neil Dawson is a world renowned sculptor that has produced a range of impressive 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, China. Neil was made a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit in 2004. The Fan Club is an opportunity for local and international people and businesses to invest in an iconic sculptural legacy for our community and to be part of the changing future landscape. People can support Fanfare by joining the Fan Club, and become a “Hero” Club Member at $5,000, a “Star” Club Member at $3,000 or a “Fan” Club Member for $1,000. Each membership level has unique benefits, such as acknowledgement on the site signage, invitations to the special Fanfare opening event and a Fanfare brooch, to name a few. However, you do not have to join the Fan Club to be a fan of Fanfare, and SCAPE Public Art would greatly appreciate donations of any size.

    Nicky McArthur ANTA 604 – Supervised Personal Project A Comparative Review of Selected New Zealand Artists who have visited Antarctica 28.2.2013 Contents 1 Introduction 2 Countries that Maintain Antarctic Arts Programs: A Sample 3 New Zealand Artists to Antarctica 4 The Studied Artists 5 Margaret Elliot 6 Grahame Sydney 7 Clare Plug 8 Peter James Smith 9 Claire Beynon 10 Conclusion 1.0 Introduction This project reviews the work of five New Zealand visual artists who have visited Antarctica. Four travelled as part of an Antarctic Arts Fellowship from Antarctica New Zealand and one New Zealander travelled as part of the United States science program. It includes a short survey of some official artists‟ programs to Antarctica from around the world, looking in particular at the brief given to their selected artists, the expectations regarding artists‟ participation in these programs and the desired outcomes of having been accepted and given funding to travel to Antarctica as an Arts Fellow, in order to provide a comparison with the Antarctica New Zealand Arts Fellowship program which is then described. This review of artists‟ programs selects a small representative sample of New Zealand artists who have travelled to Antarctica. The selection of this sample takes into consideration comparative media and the different styles of artworks. I am especially interested in the evolution of artists‟ works and where possible chose artists who appear to have been most impacted by their Antarctic experience, based on the artists‟ biographies and discussions with the artists themselves. I conducted semi-structured interviews with the chosen artists and this project reviews the outcomes from these discussions, drawing comparisons between the artists.
