BEING THERE: huts, barns & beehives

KINA Gallery was proud to host the work of Claire du Bosky, in her solo show titled: BEING THERE – huts, barns & beehives which opened Friday 19th February 2010.

Du Bosky’s paintings capture the richness and uniqueness of the New Zealand landscape, depicting iconic landmarks –whitebait huts, barns and beehives - mostly from the Taranaki region.

Du Bosky completed a fine arts degree at Oxford University in 1983. She taught art in England for 18 years before moving to New Zealand where she continued teaching and practicing as an artist. She has exhibited on numerous occasions in England, Scotland and now in New Zealand.

Through her distinctive colour palette, awareness of light and fluid painting style, these pieces capture the charming nature of our sturdy, self reliant Kiwi culture.

BEING THERE: huts, barns & beehives was on show in the KINA gallery until the 17th March 2010
