Art+Object is delighted to present the catalogue for Important Paintings & Contemporary Art, to be held on Tuesday May 2, 2023.
The Important Paintings & Contemporary Art catalogue features an impressive selection of works by Paul Dibble, Fiona Pardington, Colin McCahon, Terry Stringer, Don Binney, Ralph Hotere, Robyn Kahukiwa, Peter Peryer, Judy Millar and many more. We are honoured to be presenting three historical New Zealand paintings of national significance, all of which have been repatriated specifically for purposes of sale. From the same family collection in Sydney are Māori portraits by Gottfried Lindauer and Charles Frederick Goldie. Alongside these two portraits is an important depiction of one of the most dramatic and far-reaching moments of Abel Tasman’s first voyage to New Zealand in 1642 by the Dutch maritime painter Everhardus Koster.
Please join us to preview the catalogue on Wednesday 26 April, 5pm–7pm | 3 Abbey Street, Newton, Auckland.
The artworks will then be on view at Art+Object every day until the auction on Tuesday 2 May, at 6pm.
