Pat Hanly not only painted but demonstrated against political and social things that disturbed him, especially nuclear testing. Curated by Lopdell House Gallery, Auckland, Blast! Pat Hanly – The Painter and His Protests celebrates our nuclear-free status which passed into legislation in 1987.

‘Pat Hanly was a small man with a big-hearted, wide-seeing view of the world,’ says exhibition organiser Kate Wells. Vibrant works tell a story of the power of art to move hearts and minds.

Entry to the exhibition is included with general admission to the museum.

Prices to 30 September 2010: Adult $12, Child $5.50, Family (1 adult & 3 children) $16, Family (2 adults & 3 children) $28.

Prices from 1 October 2010: Adult $12.50, Child $5.50, Family (1 adult & 3 children) $17, Family (2 adults & 3 children) $29.
