25 March – 16 July 2017
Exquisitely imagined, startlingly strange works by an internationally acclaimed New Zealand artist.
Collection
Francis Upritchard Wife
Francis Upritchard is a fascinated and perceptive observer of people and other animals. Her works often capture behaviours and expressions that are shared across species. As primates, humans and monkeys are, of course, especially alike. Upritchard’s baboon spouses are persuasively individual – absorbed in their own thoughts and worlds, just like the rest of us.

Interview
The Borrowings of Francis Upritchard
Arriving at the studio and home of Francis Upritchard on a Tuesday morning in East London, you’d hardly know she was opening a solo booth at Frieze Art Fair later that day, launching a fashion collaboration with Peter Pilotto the following day, and juggling studio visits and interviews throughout London’s hectic art-focused week. She’s the picture of tranquillity. The calm doesn’t last long though, as discussions of Christchurch’s rebuild, the Christchurch Art Gallery, our friends and memories are quickly interrupted by an escalating flurry of visitors and family dropping by and couriers collecting objects, packing crates, dropping off documents.
