Gabrielle Hope 1916 -

1962

Works from the artist’s Estate Collection

Gabrielle Hope was born in Lower Hutt, she attended Auckland’s Diocesan School for Girls and studied at Elam School of Fine arts. The mother of two children, she lived in Whitford, Waiheke Island and in 1950 purchased a home in Tohunga Crescent, Parnell. Gabrielle’s wide circle of friends included fellow artists Helen Brown, Jan Nigro, Louise Henderson, Robert Nettleton Field, Eric Lee Johnson, Colin & Anne McCahon and Lincoln Lee.

Her subject matter extensively encompasses still lifes, landscapes, figures, animals and portraits. The influence of Picasso, and an admiration of Frances Hodgkins is reflected in Hope’s work as is her fascination with western and eastern occult philosophies and symbolism. From 1946 she exhibited with the Auckland and Hamilton Society of Arts and the Auckland City Art Gallery in 1955/56.

From today’s perspective Gabrielle Hope’s work is more vital and modern than ever. There is an uncompromised bravery of brushstroke, a quality of perception leaving no doubt that she was a woman artist ahead of her time.

The artist’s early death at just forty six years of age cut short a career of already considerable achievement.

Ruth Dorothy Browne 1905 - 2002

The Forgotten Antipodean - works from the Artist’s Estate

Ruth Browne is the matriarch of a rich artistic lineage. Her son is Wellington-based artist Michael Browne, and her grandson is Auckland artist Matthew. Ruth Browne’s love of painting and drawing became well established in her childhood when, on the family farm in North Canterbury, she saw a woman sitting on a hill near their house, ‘doing something’, which, upon investigation, turned out to be painting. Ruth decided this too would be her vocation.

Ruth attended Canterbury College of Art, winning two major prizes along with the CCSA Sketch Club’s self-portrait competition in which Rita Angus was also a finalist.

During the 1920s and 1930s, a period in which New Zealand women artists flourished, Ruth Browne aligned herself with Olivia Spencer Bower and Mary Hogg. She travelled to England to study at the Slade School of Fine Art, completing her certificate in one year rather than the usual three. From there Ruth made extended painting trips through the English countryside and to Italy. After her return to New Zealand in 1933 she continued to explore landscape painting but, by the early 1960’s, had begun to develop a level of abstraction that culminated in her final, poured abstract works. She was one of few women artists of her time able to support herself financially through painting sales and to pursue her career with professional purpose.

Ruth was artistically progressive and brave. Her early abstractions were playful then quickly moved to more atmospheric work employing a limited palette. Possibly influenced by Jackson Pollock’s paintings, Ruth broke free from old restraints and began to use paint with more abandon. There is a sense of intuitive spontaneity and daring quickness, still drawing on organic form and a closeness to nature that always inspired her to paint.

Ruth Browne is represented in private and public collections in New Zealand including Te Papa Tongarewa Ruth in her Eastborne Studio, 1960

Gaston de Vel 1924 - 2010

Works from the artist’s Estate Collection

Belgium born De Vel spent his student years at the Academie Royal des Beaux Arts, Brussels, which he attended at age 17 from 1941 to 1945. I was taught to paint directly from life, so I could learn to visualise things as an artist in colour, just like the Impressionists. Now these lessons are in my blood, a part of me.

One of his most influential tutors was Alfred Bastien, a friend of Claude Monet and John Singer Sargent. Gaston believes he was one of the last painters to have been taught in the classical and impressionistic fashion by a tutor directly involved with some of the leading artists of that movement. In 1960 he arrived in New Zealand from the Belgium Congo with nothing but peace and safety - it was worth losing everything just for that, Gaston said in an interview with the Auckland Star.

He was awarded the Kelliher Art Prize in 1968. The 1980s saw several sellout exhibitions in Auckland and at Lewis Paape Gallery, Lower Hutt. Gaston’s work is part of the permanent collection of Dunedin Public Art Gallery.

Ida Harriet Carey 1891 - 1982

Works from the artist’s Estate Collection

The works of popular Waikato artist and teacher Ida Carey have received increased market attention over the past few 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.

John Weeks 1886 - 1965

Works from the artist’s Estate Collection

John Weeks was born in Devonshire, England. His family sailed to New Zealand in 1892, arriving when he was aged 6. His parents ran a dairy farm for several years near Te Awamutu, before settling in rural Northcote, Auckland where the family home was to remain. Weeks soon embarked on part-time classes at Elam Art School from 1907-1909 while working as a signwriter. In the years prior to World War I, Weeks visited England with his family, sketched through New South Wales, and took classes at Sydney Technical College. He returned home in 1915 and later enlisted with the New Zealand Medical Corps in early 1917.

Returning from Britain in late 1919, the artist entered a busy period exhibiting nationally and attracting attention and praise. He also taught signwriting and lettering classes alongside part-time study at Canterbury College School of Art, then under the directorship of Archibald Nicoll. In 1923 Weeks travelled to Edinburgh where he lodged with the artist Francis McCracken. He attended Edinburgh College of Art, and the Royal Scottish Academy of Painting where he took life classes. Weeks exhibited with the Academy, and in 1924 his paintings featured in the New Zealand display of the British Exhibition at Wembley. The following year Weeks left for Paris, enrolling in André Lhôte’s Académy Montparnasse in 1926. The School attracted many international students keen to learn Lhôte’s approach to art and

Cubism. At this time Weeks painted in a largely Post-Impressionist manner, his subjects often canals and street scenes. Weeks returned again to Lhôte’s Academy with enthusiasm in early 1929 after a long trip through: Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia via the South of France, Italy and Corsica. On his return to New Zealand he began teaching in1930 at Auckland’s Elam School of Art 1930, retiring in 1954.

A diverse and well-respected artist, he was widely regarded as the leading painter and teacher in Auckland in the 1930s and 1940s, and a significant figure in national art. Many artists, including Louise Henderson, sought his advice. Weeks lost around 200 works in a fire at Elam in early 1949. He continued to paint while teaching, caring for his father and managing the family property. In 1954 he took part in the Auckland Art Gallery’s Object and Image exhibition along with Louise Henderson, Colin McCahon, Milan Mrkusich, Ross Fraser and Michael Nicholson. A touring retrospective exhibition of Week’s work, beginning was held in 1955. Ronald O’Reilly, Christchurch City Librarian and art critic, deemed it … a magnificent and monumental show. Weeks received an O.B.E for his services to painting in 1958.

William James Reed 1908 - 1996

Born in Christchurch Reed attended the Canterbury College of Art in the 1930’s with fellow artists Archibald Nicoll, Richard Wallwork, Olivia Spencer Bower and Russell Clark. Reed had a highly original vision of the New Zealand landscape and his work differed vastly from that of his contemporaries. He saw the landscape as lush, productive and fertile and he portrayed it with strong colours and forms. Reed was strongly influenced by the works of his tutor, John Weeks, his friend and colleague Rita Angus and the British painter Paul Nash. His recognition of the ideological and spiritual crisis facing humanity in the 1930’s resulted in works such as Armageddon and Visitation now in the collection of the Reed Estate. These works have a prophetic quality, pre-dating the bombing of Guernica by some months.

Works from the artist’s Estate Collection 40

At the conclusion of his studies Reed worked for a firm producing pictorial advertising for the movies. Weekends were spent roaming the Port Hills and cycling the Canterbury Plains in search of subject matter. Apart from serving with the Field Ambulance Corp in the Pacific Zone from 1942-45, his life was spent entirely in Otago. Reed’s first solo exhibition was held at the Dunedin Public Art Gallery, his intense passion for the land and its coastline was spiritually as well as emotionally charged. From today’s perspective he is seen as one of the most adventurous members of the School of South Island Painters. Reed taught at the Dunedin School of Art for more than thirty years, a respected and popular tutor, he retired in 1973 continuing to paint till the end of his life. His work is held in major galleries throughout New Zealand.

In his fifties, Watson travelled both worldwide and throughout New Zealand capturing his journeys on canvas. In 1966 he was placed third in the prestigious Kelliher Art Award, receiving first prize the following year. His work was presented in the Kelliher exhibitions from 1959 - 1968.

Landscapes

Ex Artist’s Estate Collection

Paintings and sketches by the late landscape artist Cyril Whiteoak are owned by collectors throughout the world. Whiteoak was a keen traveller but the bush and Manukau Harbour views from his Titirangi home studio also inspired his work.

Whiteoak spent 30 years teaching at The Auckland Society of Arts and travelled throughout New Zealand as a roving tutor, eventually winning a Bledisloe Award for services to the industry. He trained as an artist and gained high results in a City and Guilds of London Institute exam.

He was made a Freeman of City London for his efforts - a traditional English honour dating back to medieval times. He served in the Royal Air Force as a medical attendant during World War Two and spent time in Egypt where he covered hospital walls with murals.

Peter Siddell 1935 - 2011

Sylvia Siddell 1941 - 2011

Works from the Estate Collection

In 1960 Peter Siddell married Sylvia, the couple lived in Auckland where their two daughters were born. From 1972 Siddell painted professionally, holding his first solo exhibition that same year.

Peter Siddell’s realist paintings are identified mainly with depictions of the environs of Auckland. While his works appear to be of actual places, his paintings have a subjective component, and might be better described as magic realism rather than truly realistic. The cityscapes and townscapes in Siddell’s paintings are rendered empty, with the suggestion of events occurring outside the picture area. In this sense, his work can be compared to the metaphysical works of Giorgio de Chirico. Siddell is the second only New Zealand artist to be knighted: the first was Sir Toss Woollaston.

When Sylvia Siddell began her career in the 1970s, her art was shaped by the domestic and familiar. She incorporated family life into the process of artmaking as a means of balancing her roles as wife and mother with her activity as an artist. Among other women artists of her generation, Siddell elevated the banal and ordinary occurrences of domestic life to an appropriate and challenging subject for art. Her comments on domesticity contained references to her feelings and frustrations about the wider world continued to inform her work three decades on.

David Shennan was born in Scotland in 1965. He emigrated to New Zealand in 1974 and studied at the Elam School of Fine Arts University of Auckland 1989 - 1990 gaining a Master of Fine Arts, (First Class Honours). Major influences in these early works may be likened to artist friends, Tony Fomison & Philip Clairmont.

As a painter, I am always in search of an ‘allusive’ image. Appearing one way on the surface and then in time, shifting completely into something else.

Sale categories at International Art Centre

Important & Rare Art

Important & Rare auctions are the proven, preeminent sale category for major works offered through the New Zealand art market 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 record prices paid in April's recent sale International Art Centre has now achieved the three highest art auction prices in New Zealand history. With an appreciative, and greatly valued clientele of nationwide and international buyers and sellers we look forward to breaking new ground.

Modern & Contemporary Art

Twice a year our Modern & Contemporary Art auctions play an integral role in enabling market access to the most sought-after artists who have defined New Zealand’s art narrative over the past 50-years. The sale never fails to present an exciting offering of both painting and sculpture by a range of our modern and contemporary greats. Spanning that vital period from the establishment of midcentury modernism through to the cutting edge of our national contemporary art discourse, this is an acclaimed and significant event in the auction calendar. Our new state-of-the-art premises will ensure contemporary art is now exhibited and auctioned in a dynamic and appropriate environment.

Always consigning / Always cataloguing Single Owner Auctions & Private Treaty Sales

The buzz generated by our regular Collectable Art auctions reflects the popularity of this sale: 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. Because this auction specifically caters to the more affordable end of the market - generally presenting works valued at $5,000 and less, this is an exciting opportunity to unearth some real treasures. Collectable Art auctions offer a number 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.

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 singleowner 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, namely: the sale of the John Leech Collection, the Barry Pilcher Collection of Contemporary Art and a selection of works from the Fletcher Trust Collection. Decades of experience working with artists, vendors, collectors and institutions mean we possess a sound understanding of the best medium through which to present works to the auction market. For various reasons, you may consider it more appropriate or wish to sell an artwork privately, rather than presenting it publicly to the auction market. Guaranteeing confidence and discretion, our unparalleled and targeted access to a network of collectors means we are able to oversee private sales. For certain works, this has proven to be an especially effective method of sale; we encourage you to get in touch for an obligation-free discussion around the process and how we may best facilitate this.
