Notes
Light bulb moment
I thought nothing would beat the practicallty of the rubber vases, I was wrong...
Coming very soon and exclusive in NZ to the gallery shop the simple and yet brilliantly conceived LED Magic Bulb. Can be used as an emergency light during power failures and turns into a torch. Screw and bayonet fitting, 6 watt.
Notes
thirst quenchers
We enjoy the odd bottle of craft beer here at the Christchurch Art Gallery, especially when the labels have been created by our own staff.
Notes
Putting the temporary back into contemporary art

Notes
Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite
Letterpress + wood-engraving + John Lennon + Sgt Peppers = a Beatles obsessive meets fine printing
