Cedric Savage (1901-1969) is an artist who has been undeservedly overlooked in most New Zealand art histories. Today his work would be described as regionalist, and at their best, Savage’s paintings brim with light effects, broad areas of colour and capture the essential elements of local landscapes. But in his day, Savage struggled to gain national recognition and in a disgruntled state, he emigrated in the late 1950s to seek greater fame and fortune in Europe.
Prior to his departure, however, Savage had spent ten very productive years based in Motupipi and painting scenes from the Golden Bay and Nelson regions. This exhibition celebrates the fruits of his time in this area and assembles paintings drawn from private collections throughout the top of the South Island along with works from The Suter’s collection.
This exhibition is supported by Savage and Savage Accountants.
