  • Art's Histories in Aotearoa New Zealand Jonathan Mane Wheoki
    Art’s Histories in Aotearoa New Zealand Jonathan Mane Wheoki This is the text of an illustrated paper presented at ‘Art History's History in Australia and New Zealand’, a joint symposium organised by the Australian Institute of Art History in the University of Melbourne and the Australian and New Zealand Association of Art Historians (AAANZ), held on 28 – 29 August 2010. Responding to a set of questions framed around the ‘state of art history in New Zealand’, this paper reviews the ‘invention’ of a nationalist art history and argues that there can be no coherent, integrated history of art in New Zealand that does not encompass the timeframe of the cultural production of New Zealand’s indigenous Māori, or that of the Pacific nations for which the country is a regional hub, or the burgeoning cultural diversity of an emerging Asia-Pacific nation. On 10 July 2010 I participated in a panel discussion ‘on the state of New Zealand art history.’ This timely event had been initiated by Tina Barton, director of the Adam Art Gallery in the University of Victoria, Wellington, who chaired the discussion among the twelve invited panellists. The host university’s department of art history and art gallery and the University of Canterbury’s art history programme were represented, as were the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the City Gallery, Wellington, the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery, New Plymouth, the Dunedin Public Art Gallery and the University of Auckland’s National Institute of Creative Arts and Industries. The University of Auckland’s department of art history1 and the University of Otago’s art history programme were unrepresented, unfortunately, but it is likely that key scholars had been targeted and were unable to attend.

  • 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.

  • Imagination Is the Creative Use of Reality ~ Margaret Mahy
    ISSN 11750189: Volume 11: Issue 2: August 2012. Imagination is the creative use of reality ~ Margaret Mahy. When Storylines put the call out for tributes to Margaret Mahy, they came in thick and fast - long and short - from all walks of life. From close friends, colleagues, and fans. From people who had worked closely with Margaret, those who had met her once - or a few times - and from those who never met her. But, all of us have been blessed by Margaret's life and work. And, all of us were grateful to share our thoughts. We thank you all. We are sorry that we couldn't share ALL the photos... there were so many! Herewith - with little editing - are the words of Margaret's friends and fans... Margaret Mahy is my role model. She inspired me to start writing stories and I haven’t stopped since. She opened the gateway to my passion when I met her properly for the first time at a Storylines Festival. I was nervous when I waited in the (very long) queue for her autograph, I was speechless and I didn’t know what to say. But soon my nervousness went away when we started talking, she was warm and friendly and she drew a picture of one of her characters next to her eloquent signature. It was one of the greatest opportunities in my life meeting Margaret Mahy. My admiration for Margaret Mahy formed when I was six. She came to our school wearing a funky, rainbow-coloured wig; she performed a hilarious puppet show that I can still remember.

  • Melanie Roger Took Over the Long Running Anna Bibby Gallery in 2010, Renaming the Space Melanie Roger Gallery at the Beginning of 2011
    Melanie Roger took over the long running Anna Bibby Gallery in 2010, renaming the space Melanie Roger Gallery at the beginning of 2011. Today the gallery continues to work with and represent both established and emerging artists to present some of the best contemporary art in New Zealand to both local and international audiences and collectors. Says Melanie “I take a collaborative approach with the gallery. I am interested in supporting the creation of new and exciting work and developing artists’ careers both within New Zealand and internationally.” The gallery’s stable of artists includes longstanding relationships with Stanley Palmer, Gavin Hurley, Sam Mitchell and Kristy Gorman as well as newer rising talents such as Kirstin Carlin, Matt Ellwood, Tessa Laird, Erica van Zon and Tiffany Singh. As well, the Gallery works regularly with guest artists including Billy Apple, Peter Peryer, Patricia Piccinini and Victoria Munro on selected curatorial projects both within the space and externally at Art Fairs and pop up exhibitions. Melanie herself brings over twenty years of experience within the art world to the gallery. She has held senior management positions at Gow Langsford Gallery (Auckland / Sydney) and John Leech Gallery where she worked closely with senior artists such as Michael Parekowhai, Max Gimblett, Dick Frizzell, John Pule, Shane Cotton and Judy Millar, as well as Reuben Paterson, Sara Hughes and John Walsh nurturing and developing their careers. Previously she worked for four years at the Auckland Art Gallery in a diverse range of roles within public programmes, marketing, education and curatorial. She was Director of Roger Williams Contemporary from 2006 - 2008 working with Judy Darragh, Simon Morris, Jeena Shin and internationally Patricia Piccinini and Polixeni Papapetrou to name a few.

  • 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.
