A Land of Granite: McCahon and Otago

A Land of Granite: McCahon and Otago celebrates the enduring presence of the Otago landscape in the work of Colin McCahon, from his earliest paintings from the late 1930s, through to his severe, abstract North Otago series of the late 1960s.

The exhibition draws on major works from the art collections of Otago, including Dunedin Public Art Gallery, Dunedin Public Library Ka Kete Wanaka o Otepoti, Hocken Collections Uare Taoka o Hakena and Forrester Gallery Oamaru. Together these paintings and drawings offer an intimate view of McCahon's Otago landscapes, and explore his position within the artistic fabric of this region.
