2 March 2010 - 1 April 2010
Words Walking explores the ongoing interest in language amongst New Zealand artists. From McCahon to Billy Apple and John Reynolds, words have loomed large on the landscape of New Zealand art - as Auckland art historian Francis Pound once wrote "Words come everywhere, before art, with art, in art and about art". In this exhibition four artists create works, using their own and found words, focusing attention on the visual image as a 'text' to be read.
