Opening Day Event: Saturday 4 October, 2-4pmGow Langsford Onehunga
Dick Frizzell is one of Aotearoa’s most widely known and celebrated painters. His work traverses genres with an assured confidence and skill. In this major new exhibition, Frizzell returns to the historically rich tradition of landscape painting, embedded, as ever, with his playful and idiosyncratic sensibilities. Frizzell’s landscapes bring into focus fragments of the New Zealand landscape that feel deeply familiar. They are down-to-earth, up-the-road, intentionally unspectacular scenes. Poplar trees emerge from the end of a gravel path, a ladies toilet stands on a lean, a boarded-up fishing hut sits proudly in the sunshine, while a shadowed tree foregrounds a rolling mist – in Frizzell’s hands, the quotidian is front-and-centre spectacular.
