Expatriates One and All
4 April 1985 - 16 June 1985
The history of New Zealand painting is set against a broad background of expatriatism. Many artists left these shores to seek an identity and a maturity in their work which they hoped could be sustained in a climate where there was more understanding. Many of the artists included in this exhibition were among those who chose to remain away, and become New Zealand expatriates.
