GRAHAME SYDNEY (b. 1948) Catherine Sleeping Oil on linen 58.5 x 71.5 Signed, inscribed Dunedin & dated 1987 $40,000 - 60,000
ILLUSTRATED p.137 The Art of Grahame Sydney, Grahame Sydney, Michael Findlay, Brian Turner, Belinda Jones, Reg Graham, Longacre Press Ltd, Dunedin 2000 Grahame Sydney was born in Dunedin in 1948 and began his full-time art career in 1974. He is one of New Zealand’s preeminent artists, and works skilfully across numerous media including oil, watercolour, tempera and lithograph. There is a feeling of essentialism to Sydney’s work, which is rooted in both the choice of subject matter and photorealist style. It confirms him as an artist both of and for
New Zealand, and is reflected in everything from the monumental timelessness of Otago landscapes to the lyrical allure of his painted nudes. Sydney’s nudes are often shown with their backs turned to us; their faces concealed. He places them in minimalist rooms and invites the viewer to contemplate the purity of form, and the energy which a single human body can instil in a moment. Often, we meet with these bodies as they are getting dressed (or undressed), and the viewer’s role as potential voyeur unfolds. The critical and public acclaim which Sydney has received over the course of his career is testament to his enduring contribution to New Zealand art. He was also made a Frances Hodgkins fellow in 1978, and an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to painting in the 2003 New Year Honours.

NIGEL BROWN (b. 1949) I/We Landscape, 2006-2007 Oil on board 119 x 78 Signed & dated 2006-07 $14,000 - 18,000
I/We Landscape relates to the I Am works painted at Cosy Nook, Southland. Pahia Hill features on the horizon but this work relates in part to Arama Ave works of the 1970’s. I saw it as a kind of unlikely monument to I and We, two aspects of human awareness. Works such as this extend the work of McCahon back to more involvement in the human situation while reintroducing pictorial aspects abandoned by Modernist purism. A painting influenced by elements of a rough vernacular and sculptural awareness. NB 11

This work on paper from McCahon's Northland Series precedes art historical explanation. Partly, this is because it is so instantly recognisable in both subject matter and style - Northland, April 59 captures the essence of McCahon's deeply spiritual relationship with the land. It expresses the purity of that point of convergence between sky and landmass. McCahon's use of an ink on paper medium lends immediacy to this work: a raw aesthetic smudginess to the conception of Northland geography which the artist knew intimately. And directly his ability to transcend our human condition, and express something of
20 ART AT HOME | April 2020
Aotearoa's unique identity - not in a nationalistic sense, but through a more broadly existential lens. The richness and evolution of New Zealand's art tradition is built on a foundation of intermediary dialogue and exchange. At the very heart of this is the path forged by Colin McCahon. The physical trajectory of Northland, April 59 is emblematic of this - its market origins were with Gallery 91, Christchurch, Peter McLeavey Gallery, and the work has since been part of the renowned Bootham art collection.
