The Very Merry Christmas Show and 'The Artists' Book Launch by Various Artists

The Very Merry Christmas Show and 'The Artists' Book Launch - Various Artists

12 December to 21 January 2007

A superb group show featuring collections from 16 of our most exciting artists.

Curated with reference to our new book 'The Artists: A snapshot of Contemporary New Zealand Art Practice c.2007-2008' the show represents a detailed survey into the depth of talent boasted by just one gallery, revealing the unique stories of those artists - providing real insight into the richness and diversity of the New Zealand contemporary art scene as a whole.

Providing in-depth information on the current practice of 16 full-time New Zealand artists, the selection includes contemporary work in sculpture, photography and painting; and presents emerging artists alongside established names. The format of the book is simple - images of the artists in their environs, introductory notes on their work, references for further research and a plethora of full-colour images of pieces from their current portfolios.

This book is an entertaining presentation of a microcosm of the New Zealand contemporary art scene at this moment in time - the show features works from the book and indicates the current direction of the artists.

PLEASE NOTE THAT NOT ALL WORKS FROM THE SHOW ARE FEATURED ON THE WEB SITE - this should be viewed as a selection only!
