Art in its own place

Art should be available in its own place. There is a significance when visitors have a feeling for the landscape, the local culture and the people who make the art.

Christine Boswijk, ceramist

Art in its own place is universally valued by artists, local and visitors alike. This latest edition is comprehensive and inspiring.

Peter Biggs, Chair, Arts Council of New Zealand, Toi Aotearoa

The whole of the Nelson region appears to be a living art-space and this book leads you through it, setting the standard by which all other regional guide books should be judged.
