Songs from Robert Burns
One of the highlights acquired for the Gallery's library recently is this beautiful 1925 Golden Cockerel Press edition of Songs From Robert Burns, illustrated throughout with wood-engravings by Mabel Annesley (1881–1959).
Notes
Wallpower
What's that weird sensation? Faint, but growing stronger. A stretching, tingling, anticipatory sort of feeling. Familiar but hard to name. After all this time, it couldn't be, surely? But yes (nervously touches wood), it really does seem to be true... It's that getting-ready-to-make-a-show feeling. People, we are about to present some art.
Notes

Sometimes I wonder about the blurbs we public gallery types pin to our exhibitions.

Going Bush
As we're constantly reminded by a somewhat strident billboard campaign, the Christchurch We Love Is Still Here.
Notes
Wrong way in
Impossible not to feel disappointed by news yesterday about a huge new sculptural gateway for Christchurch.

GOOD WEATHER FOR A STROLL AROUND THE GALLERY
Our new midday weekend Outer Spaces tours are underway, so what's keeping you away?

Trumpet blowing time!
The Museums Australia Multimedia and Publication Design Awards (MAPDAs) were announced in Perth the other day.
