Forrester Gallery Exhibition: Lilburn, McCahon and Frame

Three of New Zealand’s most significant arts figures – Janet Frame, Douglas Lilburn and Colin McCahon – were all living and attending school in Oamaru in 1931.

All three said their time here inspired either their careers or some of their future work. The new exhibition at Forrester Gallery in Oamaru, touches on these artists’ experiences while they lived on Oamaru and considers how it impacted their lives.

The exhibition is on now until the 25th October, 2021.
