Art and Ethics
Recently I read an art history thesis, which covers two instances of moral panic and subsequent legal action taken against galleries for showing photographic art depicting naked children, one in the US in 1984 (Robert Mapplethorpe) and one in Australia in 2008 (Bill Henson).
Muka Studio
Muka Studio, Auckland's renowned lithographic workshop, closed on 3o September this year after operating for the past 25 years.
Going to Venice
When I mentioned Neil Semple would be in Venice for the dismantling of Michael Parekowhai's On first looking into Chapman's Homer, I was a bit shy to say that I would be there too!
To Russia with love
The Gallery owns an assortment of British eighteenth-century prints copied from paintings at Houghton Hall in England.
Decline and fall
Here we have Hamilton Palace, one of Scotland's finest houses, as depicted in its final moments by the Australian actor/artist W.S. Percy.
Touring On first looking into Chapman’s Homer
Michael Parekowhai's extraordinary sculptural installation On first looking into Chapman's Homer, New Zealand's official presentation at this year's Venice Biennale, finished its triumphant outing at this amazing exhibition on 23 October.
Finale
I bike past this relatively new building on the corner of Peterborough and Victoria streets every morning and marvel at its demise.
