MARKET WATCH

Realised $8,408

Jane Evans was born in Nelson, 1946 and educated at Nelson College for Girls. She enrolled at the Ilam School of Fine Arts in 1965, and the following year travelled to England to attended London’s Waltham Forest Art College. Following a period of formal study she determined upon a program of self-education. This freedom of spirit from a young age resonates throughout a life time’s creation of vibrant, free-flowing works.

Evan’s innate understanding and use of colour saw her flower and figurative narratives hit a high spot in the buoyant international art market of the early to mid 1980s. Today, enthusiasm for her work is again being witnessed in the sale room.

After an initial diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis in 1965, Evans was diagnosed with an ongoing condition that affected her for the rest of her life. Often literally painting through her pain, while adapting her painting methods and media accordingly, Evans stated: Suddenly there was life in front of me and I had to grab it with both hands. It was a compulsive thing for me to express the joys of life.

Evans moved to Christchurch in 1967, returning to Nelson in 1971 and the ongoing support of close friends and family. 1972 saw the artist painting the colourful

characters of Sydney’s King Cross and setting up a studio in Melbourne. In 1974 she travelled again to England where she spent three months commencing a series of works showing people visiting and viewing paintings in the London galleries and the lively exchanges at markets such as Portobello Road.

Returning home Evans purchased a cottage in Tasman Street which she renovated and lovingly established the garden which became a tremendous source of inspiration for her signature flower paintings. Of this time she said: the garden was an extension of my life. When I turned to watercolours I found myself in touch with this wonderful, loose spontaneous medium that was really exciting.

Passionate about the expressionist works of Matisse, Bonnard and Chagall, Evans said: I am drawn to the painters who express the joy in living. Her paintings resonated with the public and there were waiting lists for her work. She never allowed journalists to make mention of her illness but worked closely with John Coley who published her 1997 her biography.

In the 1997 New Year Honours, Evans was appointed an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to painting. She died peacefully in 2012 at the Nelson home which she shared with her partner David Furniss.

The public Who’s Afraid sculpture was unveiled outside the Regent Theatre in Broadway, Palmerston North, 3 July 2011. The two contrasting pieces challenge each other, physically and metaphorically. The taller, the dancer, stands 3.5 metres eying the 3 metre tall tuatara.

Because it’s for the Regent Theatre it’s about drama, acting out emotions and feelings. I’ve called it ‘Who’s Afraid’, but I’m not too sure if she’s alarmed or trying to scare the tuatara. There is also a fair bit of joy in her and that’s because theatre is about all those emotions. Paul Dibble

The DVD included with this lot

Painted after Binney's early 1990's sabbatical in Hawaii, A Cape for Father Damien II features the volcanic landform of Molokai with a depiction of Father Damien on the beach wearing his widebrimmed hat. In the sky above is a stylised image of a traditional feather cloak worn by Hawaiian chiefs. Father Damien or Saint Damien of Molokai (1840 -1889) was a Roman Catholic priest from Belgium who ministered for sixteen years to lepers quarantined on the Hawaiian island of Molokai.

In 2009 Father Damien was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI. The work features as a full colour plate in Damian Skinner's Don Binney: Nga Manu/Nga Motu - Birds/ Islands, Auckland University Press 2003. In Roger Taberner's documentary, Don Binney: Seven Paintings, the artist speaks about his seven favourite works. Binney stands alongside A Cape for Father Damien II speaking passionately of the work.

A Terrible Event over the Mallee(The Rooster that thought it was a Magpie).

From The Birds of Black Thursday Part 3 Oil on linen 99 x 119.4

Signed & dated 1997

$15,000 - 20,000

In 1998, a significant exhibition entitled The Birds of Black Thursday showcased ten powerful paintings from Ray Ching’s series of the same title. These works had been undertaken as a reflection on, and commemoration of the Black Thursday bushfires in the state of Victoria. A Terrible Event Over the Mallee belongs to the third part of this series. The devastation of these 1851 bushfires effected over 5 million hectares of land. It is on record that as the fires spread, birds and other wildlife were dropping from the trees in all directions. It is one such moment that we encounter

in this work. Ching has realised a scene of violent beauty, and there is a real potency to this depiction of a singular plummeting avian life. He has chosen to completely de-contextualise the subject from the surrounding chaotic action in favour of capturing a single moment. One imagines that if this were a film, we would be witnessing this scene in slow-motion. Wings fully spread and resplendent in colour, the work possesses a theatricality of almost-Renaissance proportions, and is striking to behold.

Red Tailed Black Cockatoos

Oil on linen 99 x 119.4

Signed & dated 1990

$14,000 - 18,000

Belonging to the same incendiary body of work as A Terrible Event Over the Mallee, this captivating painting on linen offers a useful starting point from which to consider Ray Ching’s distinctive handling of realism. Paintings from the early decades of the artist’s career, when much of his work served a primarily documentary function, belie a scientific precision and almost microscopic quality. Ching carried this incisiveness and painstaking attention to photographic realism into his work of later years: works such as Red Tailed Black Cockatoos. Here the cockatoos have been painted with that same beautiful clarity of detail and linear finesse. Interestingly,

through the manipulation of atmospheric conditions there has been a blurred, impressionistic lens applied to the scene. This affords a depth to the work, a challenging and poetic quality which facilitates our engagement with the painting on an even more profound, reflective level. Aesthetic considerations aside, this work also goes to the very roots of a message of ecological preservation. Ching celebrates and affirms the beauty and preciousness of avian wildlife. An appreciation of these works encourages us to value and preserve the lives and habitats of these creatures.

Sketch for TEAL, 1953

Oil on board 52.6 x 66.7

Signed & dated 1953

$65,000 - 85,000

Provenance:

Private Collection, Auckland

Fine New Zealand and Foreign Paintings, Photography and Prints, Webb's 14/12/1998, Lot No. 54

REFERENCE

The Invention of New Zealand; a Nationalist Mythology in Art and Letters: c. 1930-c. 1970, Francis Pound 2010

Sketch for TEAL is McCahon's study for the 1953 International Air Race commissioned in 1952 by the national airline, Tasman Empire Airways Limited, to commemorate a forthcoming air race from London to Christchurch. TEAL, who no doubt had expected something more naturalistic, was not happy with the final painting, though they did honour the commission by paying the artist. After a long and ominous silence from the company, in August 1953 it was reluctantly announced that the painting would be displayed in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. As R N O'Reilly wrote to McCahon: Everyone is most relieved the thing has broken at last. The finished painting, along with four preliminary studies and Sketch for TEAL were exhibited as McCahon's entry to the 1953 group show. McCahon's friend, the writer John Summers wrote to congratulate McCahon, telling him that International Air Race dwarfed all else and was more startling and powerful than I'd expected. TEAL took possession of the painting in Auckland, and transferred it to Wellington, where it was put into storage. Finally the painting was sawn up, so the story goes, and turned into a packing case.

There is nothing in New Zealand landscape painting quite like Turner's Rain, Steam and Speed, or much in New Zealand art like the Italian Futurists' celebrations of technology and the machine: there are few triumphant emblems of an awesome modernity. Rather, there is a strong anti-technological strain, and the New Zealand regionalist tends to suppress or downplay any too emphatic signs of technological

modernity in the landscape. The steel viaduct of McCahon's On Building Bridges, 1952, is one of the few major exceptions. Even there, the triptych format, in that it recalls the same format of the medieval and Renaissance altarpiece, frames the land with a certain anti-modern, medievalising and Christian sacredness.

McCahon's International Air Race of 1953, commissioned by Tasman Empire Airways Limited, and later destroyed by its unhappy commissioners, might seem, with its racing jets, another important exception to the anti-technological rule of New Zealand landscape painting. However, it was provoked, in all probability, only by TEAL's special requirements. Significantly, the other aeroplanes which fly through McCahon's art, appear in a Christianised and so medievalised, context. There is one above the barbed wire behind the biblical Paul, in I Paul to You at Ngatimote, 1946, which, as a modernist machine of war, flying into the parabolic line-and-ball symbol of atomic technology, signifies technological modernity in its most negative aspect.

An aeroplane provides the window format of Flight From Egypt, 1980, A Christian allegory of the search for the Promised Land. Other aeroplanes are transubstantiated into a cross - a device borrowed from the great Russian abstractionist, Malevich, or a sign of the soul flying from the body at the moment of death, in the Jet Out Over Muriwai series of drawings. McCahon's aeroplanes, with the exception of the TEAL commission, are invariably turned into a Christian symbol. It is significant, too, that such celebrations as there are of technology and the machine in New Zealand art tend mostly to be made by painters infected by the modern in style - it is as though stylistic modernity and technological modernity are accepted as one and the same. International Air Race was a somewhat cubist picture, provincially mild though it is, and based on the still only proto-cubist works of Picasso and Braque, yet leaves the realism of the regional realist behind.

Important

& Rare Art

Important & Rare auctions are the proven, preeminent sale category for major works of art offered for sale in New Zealand. These auctions take place three times annually. As we fast approach our 50th year in business, experience continues to equal results. 2014 saw Important & Rare auctions realise five of New Zealand’s top ten auction prices. The following year saw new records set with the two top prices in Auckland achieved. With the addition of the record $1.377 million paid for a C F Goldie in April’s 2016 sale, International Art Centre achieved the three highest art auction prices in New Zealand’s history. Due to an appreciative, and greatly valued clientele of nationwide and international buyers and sellers we look forward to breaking new ground.

COLLECTABLE ART ALWAYS CONSIGNING ENTRIES NOW INVITED

The buzz generated by our Collectable Art auctions reflects the popularity of these sales: an event at which seasoned connoisseurs and budding collectors alike converge to appreciate one of the most eclectic and diverse offerings available to the market. Works span the vital period from mid-century modernism through to the cutting-edge of today’s Contemporary art in New Zealand.

This sale category is an increasingly significant event in our auction calendar. Offering a number of lowerpriced works from highly-sought after artists in print and edition form, as well as quality works from artists whose presence on the secondary market is just beginning to crystallise.

CONSIGNING INVITED

Single Owner Auctions

From time to time, the secondary market is fortunate enough to be exposed to one of those rare collections which transcends the value of its individual works of art, and stands to represent something iconic in its entirety. Our team is well-versed in the process of offering single-owner collections for sale, and take pride in the process of curating a single-owner sale when the opportunity arises. We offer a targeted marketing campaign and maximise the use of both electronic and print-based collateral to effectively showcase such collections to maximum effect. The strong networks we have established locally and internationally are reflected in some of the private collections which have been entrusted to us in recent years.
