Whilst Hot Rod at first glance may appear very retro, it is, indeed, a painting of our time. The ‘gas-guzzling’ Dodge, much loved and cherished by its owner, the chip shop (one of the most popular in Dunedin) directly opposite a multinational fast-food chain are anachronisms...

John Buckley 1942 - 2005

Born in Wellington, Buckley painted from earliest childhood. He recalled schooldays spent in various art rooms learning to draw, paint and channel a vivid imagination. In 1960 the young Buckley moved to Auckland, achieving success over the next twenty years in the world of advertising.

During a visit to the United Sates in 1980 Buckley was approached by an agent wishing to handle his work internationally. The result of this partnership was representation in private collections through out the UK, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia. John Buckley’s 1983 solo exhibition at International Art Centre, was a sellout.

Buckley depicted sometimes haunting subject matter with a skillful intensity. Of his distinctive style he said the application technique is very similar to that of the 18th century Dutch School. Colour particles are suspended in a clear medium and numerous glazes applied. The advantage of this, is that light is able to shine though the final thickness of the glazes and reflect back from the white canvas. Consequently more brilliance is achieved, even in shadowed areas.

63 IAN SCOTT Land of Sunlight

It is my belief that the role of the painter is that of the initiator of a relationship between the picture and the viewer. When a picture is complete, it is then handed on to the viewer to contribute to the process by bringing to it their own unique view point. Many people have commented that these pictures ‘brood’ . . . however, it is my belief that the darkness declares the glory of the light. John F Buckley, 1993

PETER ALOYSIUS MORIARTY 1918 – 1985

Peter Moriarty first exhibited at the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts in 1947. Later becoming the Elected Artist Member of the Academy in 1965. Moriarty exhibited at the Pan Pacific Arts Festival, Christchurch, 1968 and later won the Caltex Art Award.

At this time Moriarty also exhibited in Japan working extensively in oils, watercolours and tempera. He is best known in New Zealand for his urban scenes.

Moriarty worked with fellow Wellington artists Thomas Arthur McCormack (1883 - 1973), Stewart Bell McLennan (1903 - 1973) and Nugent Herman Welch (1881 - 1970).

ALAN

12 Mile, The Rocks

Oil on canvas 75 x 98

Signed & dated 1993

18,000 - 22,000

Alan Pearson travelled to the Buller region of the West Coast of the South Island in the winter of 1993. At 12 Mile, north of Greymouth, the surf landlocked the artist between the waves and the forest and he focused on the tidal energy, that pounding West Coast surf which is a relentless force of creation. Works are illustrations of the human condition, a wistful yearning, a whispered hope for the survival in the midst of this relentless force, symphonic depictions of energy.

The works of popular Waikato artist and teacher Ida Carey 1891 - 1982 have received increased market attention over recent years. During the 1920s whilst based in Sydney, Ida studied with Italian artist Anthony Dattilo Rubbo 1870 - 1955. Best known as a portrait painter, in the 1960s she began a series featuring Maori women with Moko. A versatile artist, Ida was also a competent painter of interiors, landscapes, still life and a series of ballet scenes.

She was a founding member of the Waikato Society of Arts, becoming President in 1934. She succeeded fellow artist Ivy Copeland (1895 - 1961) as a lecturer at Auckland College of Education and taught art in several Hamilton schools. Represented: Christchurch Art Gallery, Rotorua Museum, Waikato Museum. A collection of her paintings are on permanent exhibition at Puke Ariki, New Plymouth.
