Abstract

"Gordon Walters (1919-95) was a pioneer of modernist abstraction in New Zealand. This painter showed an unflinching commitment to abstraction at a time when landscape was the norm. Walters is best known for his Koru works, whose unique stylisation of the Maori koru motif developed out of a phase of experimentation in the 1950s. The exhibition Gordon Walters: Prints + Design considers his printmaking and graphic design work as integral to his project." [Sue Crockford Gallery news]
