  • Paradigm Shift Five-Year Strategic Plan 2005-2010 June 2006 3 Garry Moore Christchurch of Mayor
    Paradigm Shift Five-year Strategic Plan 2005-2010 July 2006 VISION The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu will take a key leadership role in making Christchurch’s Cultural Precinct and Worcester Boulevard the most visited cultural tourism site in New Zealand. The Gallery is ideally placed to take this lead with its iconic building, strategic location at the heart of the Cultural Precinct and the Gallery’s programmes inviting visitors to live the Precinct’s core values of expanding cultural horizons and enriching senses. The Gallery wants to grow the public’s perception of art as it commits to new audiences by building a new, stimulating visitor experience and develop the brand. The Gallery recognises its key audiences are the families/whanau of Christchurch, international visitors to the City, domestic visitors, educational groups and special audiences. The Gallery strives to connect people with art – emotionally and intellectually. We celebrate art and the creative spirit. The Gallery knows where it stands and has global reach. The Gallery educates, inspires discovery and preserves the legacy of artistic achievement for the people of Canterbury and New Zealand through collecting, presenting, interpreting and conserving quality works of art. The Gallery wants to be recognised locally, nationally and internationally as innovative, with quality collections and programmes, and for the enjoyment and appreciation of art it brings all its audiences. The Gallery will set a standard of excellence in all its endeavours. FOREWORD Change is always a difficult process as it challenges us to think outside our familiar boundaries. It takes courage, commitment and tenacity to enact change, exactly what the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu has done during the last six months with the Paradigm Shift.

  • Public Art in Central Christchurch
    PUBLIC ART IN CENTRAL CHRISTCHURCH A STUDY BY THE ROBERT MCDOUGALL ART GALLERY 1997 Public Art In Central Christchurch A Study by the Robert McDougall Art Gallery 1997 Compiled by Simone Stephens Preface Christchurch has an acknowledged rich heritage of public art and historically, whilst it may not be able to claim the earliest public monument in New Zealand, it does have the earliest recognised commissioned commemorative sculpture in the form of the Godley statue by Thomas Woolner. This was unveiled in August 1867. Since that date the city has acquired a wide range of public art works that now includes fountains and murals as well as statues and sculpture. In 1983 the Robert McDougall Art Gallery, with the assistance of two researchers on a project employment scheme, undertook to survey and document 103 works of art in public places throughout Christchurch. Unfortunately even though this was completed, time did not permit in-depth research, or funding enable full publication of findings. Early in 1997, Councillor Anna Crighton, requested that the 1983 survey be reviewed and amended where necessary and a publication produced as a document describing public art in the city. From June until December 1997, Simone Stephens carried out new research updating records, as many public art works had either been removed or lost in the intervening fourteen years. As many of the more significant public art works of Christchurch are sited between the four Avenues of the inner city, this has been the focus of the 1997 survey the results of which are summarised within this publication.
