uses. Regenerate Christchurch

regeneration plan for the Otakaro

WE DO THIS
As Aotearoa New Zealand marks 125 years of women’s suffrage, we’ve recharged our contemporary collection spaces with a high-voltage new
hang. Some works resonate with challenge, like Allie Eagle’s defiant 1974 self-portrait – made after spending a long day hanging paintings by her
male peers – or Robyn Kahukiwa’s foot-stomping women’s haka, Tena I Ruia (1988). Others claim space more obliquely, with ambition, insight
and self-deprecating humour. Spanning four decades, the new line-up highlights major pieces by such celebrated artists as Vivian Lynn, Julia
Morison and Louise Henderson, and also introduces several recent Christchurch Art Gallery acquisitions, including works by Areta Wilkinson,
Francis Upritchard and Saskia Leek. Free admission.

FEAR AND COURAGE
During Stalin’s purges of 1937,
Dimitri Shostakovich was
denounced by the Communist
Party which decried his most
recent works as endangering the
Soviet people. Under tremendous
pressure, Shostakovich responded
with his Fifth Symphony. Twentyfive
year-old Russian pianist
Khozyainov was the youngest
finalist in the International
Chopin Piano Competition and
has delighted audiences around
the world with sold out recitals
and concerto engagements. He
joins the Christchurch Symphony
Orchestra to perform Prokofiev’s
Piano Concerto No. 3, and
Bernard Herrmann’s film score
for Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960
movie, Psycho.
