Notes
Room with a view
The view from the windows of our new exhibition space in Madras Street is not one you can easily put into words.
Notes

In the latest installment of the Gallery's Outer Spaces programme, keep an eye out for posters of several Elliot Collins' word paintings that are currently pasted up round town.
Notes
A little bit of Auckland in Christchurch
The Ellerslie International Flower Show opens in the Garden City today.
Notes
Physics Room opening
Great to attend the Physics Room opening of Sean Kerr's Song and Dance exhibition last Friday.
Notes
Over the Reefs and Far Away
Always on the lookout for connections between New Zealand and overseas artists, one interesting visitor to our shores was the renowned Irish wood-engraver Robert Gibbings who first visited New Zealand in late 1945.
Notes
Saved
Artworks at Christchurch's Convention Centre were finally rescued yesterday by Sean Duxfield and his team from the Gallery after being inaccessible for almost 12 months.
Notes
Huntsbury Press
The Gallery was very fortunate to receive a collection of books from Leo Bensemann's library this week.
Notes
Wharariki Dreaming
Located at the top of the South Island's West Coast, near Cape Farewell, Wharariki Beach is a stunning area where the land meets the sea in dramatic fashion.
Notes
Lyttelton from the water
The Gallery holds two ink drawings by William Holmes (1825–1885) including this intensely detailed view of Lyttelton from the water which he drew in 1852, just 15 months after the first four ships arrived with the Canterbury Association settlers.
Notes
Books books everywhere and not a word to read
The Gallery's library currently has the appearance of some sort of intervention.
