GRAPHIC ART PRINTS
EXHIBITION TO BE HELD IN ART GALLERY NEW ZEALANDERS’ WORK The graphic art work of possibly as many as 70 New Zealand artists, will be exhibited in the Art Gallery toward the* end of the month. The prints will include one or more of the various processes embracing etching, dry-point, lithography, engraving on wood and metal, aquatint and linocutting. It is expected that a large number of artists will respond to the appeal for prints Mr. John Barr, director of the Art Gallery, and Mr. T. W. Gulliver have made. Their particular desire is to secure the loan of examples of early work done in New Zealand. The prints will be on exhibition for three or four weeks and the display may be followed by two separate exhibitions of work by noted European and American artist-photographers. In less than two months the large collection of Medici prints, after old masters of the principal European schools presented to the gallery by Mr. Moss Davis, of London, is expected to arrive. On account of the congested state of the galleries there may be some difficulty in finding wall space for these and the loan exhibits.
