As part of the Art History program at the Victoria University of Wellington, David Maskill, Lecturer in Art History, sets his students a project that will result in a publication and exhibition. The project for 2003 was an examination of the Australian printmaker Lionel Lindsay. There is an important Lindsay collection in the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, a gift of the widow of Harold Wright, the artist’s London representative and friend.


The exhibition, Before Addled Art: The graphic art of Lionel Lindsay opened on 25 October 2003 at Adam Art Gallery Te Pataka Toi, Victoria University of Wellington. The catalogue has an essay by David Maskill and nine of his students.
