THE ISLAND OF TOUI POENAMMU
I was fortunate enough to see first hand this stunning map of New Zealand's South Island / Te Waipounamu at the Mitchell Library in Sydney last week, a map which must rate as a very special taonga for Mainlanders.
Notes
Fernside art class
Room 10 at Fernside School are doing some amazing school work about art from Christchurch Art Gallery and we think that's pretty cool.
Notes
It's Showtime!
Today is Show Day here in Canterbury. Over at Canterbury Agricultural Park you can see thousands of animals being put through their paces or if you'd rather, you can look at some of these equally beautiful beasts from our collection.
Notes
Blurred Lines
The Gallery's newest exhibition, Shifting Lines, makes for memorable viewing at our Tuam St space.
Notes
Very heavy metal
William Morris' mighty Albion press used at the Kelmscott Press to print The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer in 1896 is up for sale in New York.
Notes
Snug as a bug in a polarfleece rug
There was something a little bit sweet about these blankets and old carpets being used to wrap these pipes currently running out of the Gallery carpark as part of the relevelling project.
