Christ's College Students & Old Boys' Art Exhibition

Christ’s College Students & Old Boys’ Art Exhibition

A multi-layered exhibition that showcases a stunning array of artworks by Old Boys and students will open at Christ’s College in October.

Featuring a range of vibrant and striking pieces, the Christ’s College Students & Old Boys’ Art Exhibition. The exhibition will then be open to the public from Saturday 14 October–Sunday 15 October, from 10am–8pm.

For Old Boy artist and curator Oli Aikawa, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to “showcase the artistic talent that Christ’s College has helped to nurture and develop”.

“The upcoming exhibition also builds on the past, with Old Boys joining with younger artists and students to exhibit a remarkable range of art in the Assembly Foyer.

“Among the Old Boys and students, there are many talented artists with amazing visual arts skills. All want to share their work with a wider audience.

“I am committed to reinstating the tradition of the College art exhibition, and now feel that this integral element of College life has been restored to its rightful place.”

An award-winning painter, Oli has created his own collection of works – titled Kā Pākihi-whakatekateka-a-Waitaha – for the exhibition. It features his favourite moments in time and much-loved Canterbury landscapes.
