Press Release
Russell Clark (1905-1966) was a painter, sculptor and an influential teacher and illustrator. His painted scenes of modernist New Zealand landscape, rural Maori life, and modernist sculptures give him a unique position in New Zealand art history. This exhibition is a rare opportunity to see a dynamic collection of works from the artist’s family some of which have not previously been shown.

About the Artist

Through his illustrations in the New Zealand Listener and New Zealand School Journal, Russell Clark’s art became part of New Zealanders daily lives from the 1940s to 1970s. Clark attended Canterbury College School of Art, in Christchurch from 1922 to 1928, and then worked in advertising for 20 years. However it was as a painter and sculptor that Clark contributed to an emerging Modernist movement in Post-War New Zealand.
