Linda Tyler, Director of the Centre for New Zealand Art Research and Discovery, gives a guided tour of the exhibition 'Miles: A Life in Architecture'.

The exhibition reveals Sir Miles Warren’s substantial contribution to modernism in New Zealand and his subsequent move towards a post modernist idiom, as well as his achievements as a draughtsman and watercolourist.

Traversing the architect’s career, from the design of the Dorset Street flats to such landmarks as College House, the Christchurch Town Hall and the New Zealand Chancery in Washington, the exhibition includes seldom-seen watercolour perspectives of building projects.

'Miles: A Life in Architecture' will be on display from 23 April – 29 May 2010 at the Gus Fisher Gallery.

The exhibition was developed and toured by Christchurch Art Gallery with support from The Warren Trust, Pyne Gould Corporation and Luneys Construction.
