Picturing History: Goldie to Cotton
25 Apr 2009  - 21 Feb 2010

Picturing History: Goldie to Cotton
The Auckland Art Gallery invites you to explore a collection of New Zealand art works on display from April 25th 2009 - February 21st 2010.

Stories of origin and arrival, significant events, and the transformation of the land of New Zealand are just some of the themes explored in this collection exhibition.

Drawing from across the historic, modern and contemporary New Zealand collections this exhibition considers how artists have responded to and interpreted our history through their work.

A special focus within the exhibition is the eruption of Mt Tarawera in 1886, and the impact the devastation it wrought had on the country.

The exhibition features works by Charles Goldie, Gottfried Lindauer, Colin McCahon and Shane Cotton, some of New Zealand's most celebrated artists of the past and present, amongst others.

Families can discover art together with Auckland Art Gallery's free Family Guide, filled with creative activities for kids aged 6 to 12.
