Notes
Hanging Around
Curated by Justin Paton, and in development since 2009, Shane Cotton: The Hanging Sky was scheduled to open at Christchurch Art Gallery in late 2011. However, earthquakes and the subsequent closure of the Gallery intervened, and the show was reconfigured as a very successful touring exhibition, visiting venues in Brisbane, Sydney and Wellington. So it will be a pleasure to finally open a version of the exhibition in Christchurch with Baseland in June this year. Bulletin caught up with Shane to ask a few questions about what has been a rather unusual journey.

Gone in (under) 60 seconds
For the past 11 months we've displayed a large scale copy of the Dick Frizzell work Contacts on the rear wall of the Centre of Contemporary Art next door to the gallery.
