* The Naked and the Nude

The Naked and the Nude

This summer the Christchurch Art Gallery is getting its kit off, unveiling both its new renovations and an exhibition on the unclothed human figure. The Naked and the Nude, focusing on one of art's oldest and most enduringly controversial subjects, brings together dozens of bare bodies from the gallery's collection. Featuring artworks spanning the generations and their media, it displays languid academic nudes and the fragmented bodies of recent art. Along the way, the exhibition charts the growing tension between the nude and the naked - between works of art that idealise the body and those that try to tell it like it is.
* Neil Pardington The Vault

Time: 6:00 pm

Although Christchurch Art Gallery is currently undergoing refurbishment, its doors are set to open later this year, with hundreds of works going on show to the public for the first time in six-and-a-half years. Meanwhile, a bevy of exhibitions are going up, including the touring program by photographic artist, Neil Pardington. The Vault is a major project for Pardington, who worked behind-the-scenes in museums and galleries across the country with his large format camera. The results include the forty large-scale framed photographs on display at Christchurch, which reveal the hidden collection storage spaces normally closed to the public. For Pardington the works signify the 'collected culture and history of those things we deem important enough to keep, and what those things tell us about ourselves'. The gallery explains that 'this exhibition represents a significant recent body of work by a leading contemporary photographer'. Christchurch Art Gallery

McNamara Gallery continues its strong start to 2010 with a selection of the latest pieces from photographer Ann Shelton. Entitled simply New York, Shelton explores "obscured or lost discourses, little-known histories, urban mythology and the many displaced narratives that circulate in relation to a given place". The Wellington-based photographer is a regular fixture in galleries at home and abroad, and was awarded the Trust Waikato Contemporary Art Award for her major project, a library to scale. She also lectures in fine art and photography at Massey University in Wellington. New York runs from March 5-26, 2010 at McNamara Gallery, 190 Wickstead Street, Wanganui.

Entitled simply New York, Shelton explores "obscured or lost discourses, little-known histories, urban mythology and the many displaced narratives that circulate in relation to a given place". The Wellington-based photographer is a regular fixture in galleries at home and abroad, and was awarded the Trust Waikato Contemporary Art Award for her major project, a library to scale. She also lectures in fine art and photography at Massey University in Wellington. New York runs from March 5-26, 2010 at McNamara Gallery, 190 Wickstead Street, Wanganui.

The Naked and the Nude

This summer the Christchurch Art Gallery is getting its kit off, unveiling both its new renovations and an exhibition on the unclothed human figure. The Naked and the Nude, focusing on one of art's oldest and most enduringly controversial subjects, brings together dozens of bare bodies from the gallery's collection. Featuring artworks spanning the generations and their media, it displays languid academic nudes and the fragmented bodies of recent art. Along the way, the exhibition charts the growing tension between the nude and the naked - between works of art that idealise the body and those that try to tell it like it is.

McNamara Gallery continues its strong start to 2010 with a selection of the latest pieces from photographer Ann Shelton.
