Persistent Encounters writer Margaux Warne
While the permanent collection displays are being refreshed at the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū, there is still an opportunity to view some of the Gallery’s best-loved paintings in the ongoing exhibition Persistent Encounters. The exhibition explores some of the recurring subjects and themes within the Gallery’s historical collection, while tapping into events and experiences we encounter in our own lives.
