Then, Now, When

NZAFA summer art show

The New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts announces Then, Now, When: the first membership show of the year featuring new work by established and emerging artists throughout Aotearoa. The exhibition poses questions about New Zealand identity through its history of art alongside guest artists John Rundle, Raewyn Turner and Mark Bellringer.

The exhibition will open to the public with an artist talk on Saturday, February 26 at 10:30 a.m. During this talk, the public can meet two of the gallery’s guest artists, Rundle and Turner, as they discuss their work as a whole and pieces in Then, Now, When.

"Many of us enjoy talking or reading about the history of New Zealand art, but forget how each new exhibition adds to our rich history. Now is your chance to visit the Academy to share your thoughts and partake in the experience of being involved in art today,” said Gallery Director, Justin Morgan.
