24 June - 18 July 2015 Lorne Street
Overview
The Chief of the Canoe, Colin McCahon

Colin McCahon: Chief of the Canoe is a collection of significant works by Colin McCahon. The title of the exhibition borrows from the eight panelled The Canoe Tainui – an epical work from 1969 and metaphorically instates McCahon as a leader of twentieth century New Zealand art.

Colin McCahon: Chief of the Canoe brings together a grouping of masterworks and includes paintings from the Elias (1959), Visible Mysteries (1968) and Jump (1974) series’ and an early religious work (1947).
