  • Tove Jansson's Character Studies for the Moomin
    INTRODUCTION by Tom Devlin, Creative Director at Drawn & Quarterly In 2011, I went to Helsinki and was lucky enough to tour Tove Jansson’s studio. She lived in the same large studio for fifty-seven years. It was easy to picture Tove there. I saw the table she used to write at; I saw the wood-burning stove she used to heat her house during the long winters; I saw the shelves and shelves of books—many her own, or her favorites by other authors, and even the hand-lettered scrapbooks her mother, Signe, made where she stored the strips she clipped from the newspaper. I saw the tiny alcove with the even tinier bed she had slept in for years. It was surprising how modest the whole place was. As far as I knew she was Finland’s greatest literary celebrity, and yet she had lived such a simple life. Of course, I should have known this before I stepped over the threshold. It’s in her books. It’s visually manifest in her comics. The Moomins them- selves live modest lives. They have many adventures but home is simple and comforting and there is nothing unnecessary. Rereading these comics just before preparing this book, it struck me just how much of Tove we get in these stories. The Moomin stories (whether in chapter book, picture book, or comic form) all have a similar quality—a quality that is rare in today’s world. There’s a distinctly carefree, individualist vibe mixed with a hint of playful cynicism, a kind of embrace-life-and-live-it-to-its- fullest-but-maybe-don’t-get-too-carried-away ethos.

  • 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.

  • Comics Were Also Constant Companions for Dylan
    StartingStarting outout ReadingR di was big bi in i Dylan’s D l ’ childhood, hildh d especially i ll fantasy f t novels. l AlAlong with ith TheTh Lord L d of f the Rings, he gobbled up stories by Alan Garner and Susan Cooper. These British writers specialised in Dylan’s favourite kind of story: where the fantastic – the magical – enters the real world and changes it, sometimes in alarming ways. As a teenager, “when life was more complicated,” Dylan escaped by reading the kinds of books we usually associate with younger readers, things like Paddington Bear and Winnie the Pooh (Dylan identified with Piglet). Comics were also constant companions for Dylan. In fact, the entire Horrocks family loved them, which was unusual in the 1960s and 70s. This was a time when many parents (and teachers and librarians) frowned on comics because they weren’t “proper” books. But Dylan’s dad, Roger, had once thought about being a comic book artist himself. He brought home a steady supply of them, in all their different forms. There were British war comics, the Asterix and Tintin series, American underground comix*, and the French comic magazine Pilote. Dylan has been drawing cartoons and comics ever since he could hold a pencil. He always knew that he would be a comic book artist. He had natural talent as well as great determination and filled endless notebooks with his work – war stories, mostly. He also manoeuvred cartoons into every possible school project. “I was drawing all When I visited Dylan, he was about to go to Europe to promote his latest the time,” Dylan remembers.
