"The Art of Grahame Sydney" is a comprehensive survey of one of New Zealand's best-loved artists. Chosen from paintings produced over the past thirty years, this selection shows Sydney's enormously varied body of work; the luminous skies of Central Otago, the curious early studies, figure paintings, pencil drawings, portraits, still lifes, lithographs and etchings. The images are complemented by a brief autobiographical outline of Sydney's early art development, a personal response from poet Brian Turner, essays from Michael Findlay and Belinda Jones and an extended and insightful interview with Grahame Sydney and photographer Reg Graham. Included are 143 reproductions, 9 photographs, and a list of the artworks, exhibition history and biographical notes.
