Our doco has been selected for the 2010 International Film Festival. We got post-production funding from the NZ Film Commission to complete the film we have been working on for nearly three years. Gordon Crook is an artist who works across media, from drawing and collage to sophisticated abstract tapestries. He is influenced by the psychoanalysist Freud and Jung and integrates much of their work into his work which explodes with shape, colour and rich textures.

Gordon Crook
I'm currently working on a documentary about Wellington artist, Gordon Crook.
He has an amazing body of work, from drawings and collage to large paintings, tapestries and banners.
He came to NZ in 1972 after teaching art and design at the Central School of Art in London and also St Martins School of Art - now a merged entity known as Central.
He has been in Wellington since then and exhibited regularly ever since. He continues to work in his studio in Te Aro and you can see his latest work, Smoke, on the MaryNewton Gallery website.
