25 / 52

July 19 - August 17, 2013

 

 

Twenty-Five years in business, and now a move to Buchan Street, Number 52. The title of this exhibition reveals a neat synchronicity that I couldn't resist. It is 25 years of making shows, of exhibiting big things and small things across all media. The sellable and the completely unsellable. It has been a pleasure to present 334 shows to the good people of Christchurch. An absolute pleasure to represent the creative endeavour and extended visual research of many of New Zealand's very best artists. It has been a journey of the imagination, one that I have cherished and will continue to cherish for many years to come.
