COLIN MCCAHON: IS THIS THE PROMISED LAND?

Colin McCahon was regarded as New Zealand’s greatest twentieth-century artist. Leading McCahon scholar, writer and curator Peter Simpson has published his epic two-volume biography, Colin McCahon: There is Only One Direction (1919–1959) and Colin McCahon: Is This the Promised Land (1960–1987). He discusses, in conversation with art consultant Grant Banbury, the evolution of McCahon’s work and life over his long career.

Presented in partnership with Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū
