The contents give a fascinating historical window into the time of World War I, as well as resurrecting an old controversy of who really designed the building.
Originally constructed between 1917-1919 the Sarjeant Gallery at Pukenamu Queen s Park is one of New Zealand s most iconic and best-known heritage buildings.
The redevelopment is the largest arts development in the lower North Island since Te Papa. It will give the region an earthquake strengthened heritage gallery with a new state-of-the-art modern wing.
The new gallery is scheduled to reopen in 2023, capable of showcasing national and international exhibitions. It will also house the nationally-significant Sarjeant collection of over 8300 works of New Zealand and international art. ....
