Devonport: Architecture of Land & Sea Art Exhibition
For many of us, these last few months have had us hanging out in our neighbourhoods, often discovering details we had never noticed before...even after years of habitation.
In Devonport: Architecture of Land and Sea, artist Martin Law Painter of Paradise has taken attentiveness to a whole new level. His paintings are an exquisite, almost microscopically, observed tribute to Devonport, its history, environment and architecture. Each element is of singular note, but forms a whole, a narrative of a community, its development through time in a landscape – whenua overlooked by its two Maunga Takarunga and Maungauika.
On display from September 5th - October 14 in the Main Gallery, artist Martin Law will also be on-hand at Depot Artspace every Sunday over the duration of the exhibition.
Hope to see you there and do share your special stories & memories of any of the location in the works with us!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
