David Cook's images of central Christchurch in the 1980s reveal the city as we'll never again see it - Cathedral Square, Centennial Pool and Lancaster Park, punks and nuns.  From the days before big malls, when we used to take the bus everywhere, Meet Me in the Square is a moving, nostalgic journey rebuilding a city through photographs.  As a young, find-arts photography student in his twenties, Cook was fitting himself into a role that was part anthropologist, part cultural commentator and critic.  Surveying the city fearlessly with his camera, he captured bell-ringers and boot boys, Boys' Brigade meetings and beery crowds, nuns, mums with prams and royal waters; in doing so he created a body of work that continues to resonate.  

Drinks and nibbles available.
