Mossgreen-Webb's presents a selection of works from the private collection of gallerist Nadene Milne which offers a diverse survey of contemporary practice and an intimate glimpse into her collecting principles.
Nadene's Arrowtown gallery was launched in 2001 and since then she has been representing some of New Zealand’s leading contemporary artists. Now, on the eve of a new venture in Christchurch, she is offering a selection of works from her personal collection – these will feature in a stand-alone catalogue. She describes her collecting ethos as having “a love for beauty, and that doesn’t mean pretty. I’m interested in mastery of materials and medium, and in the conceptual backstory of a work”.
This collection recounts its own narrative, and offers insight into the collecting principles of a respected gallerist. It includes works by Seung Yul Oh, Fiona Pardington, Neil Pardington, Bill Culbert, collaborative duo Edwards + Johann, Sam Harrison, John Pule, Rohan Weallens, Peter Madden, Francis Upritchard, Richard Lewer, Peter Robinson, Anne Noble, Peter Trevelyn, Yuk King Tan, Gregor Kregar, Damien Hirst, Mary-Louise Browne, Gavin Hipkins, John Reynolds, Stephen Bambury, Michael Hight, Chris Heaphy, Max Gimblett, Kelcy Taratoa, Julia Morrison, Richard Killeen and many more.
