What did you do on boxing day?
We went to the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki!
Come on! Lets go!
Stop messing around Nancy and Iris!
The girls are all into gardening and flowers, so this work was a BIG hit. Red, by Choi Jeong Hwa, who is also the artist behind Flower Chandelier, is a stunning piece and looks great outside the new entrance. Fragile and bright in contrast to the city architecture and all that concrete.
There is also a cool art station for kids, you can play around with some fun stuff along side a sparkling Reuben Patterson wall…
Choice!
Luna checking out Len Lye’s Universe. So cool to have her experience works I’ve come to know so well.
Before all the renovation work even began there was a lot of talk about making our art gallery a ‘world class’ art space and a destination. That phrase got bandied around a lot – particularly as the cost of the project grew.
But this is a world class gallery and so worth a visit, so get along over the summer holidays while it’s quieter than usual.
