Lot Details
Malcolm Mason (b. c1966) Untitled (Christchurch Cathedral) Oil on Board Signed bottom right, undated 305 x 230mm Provenance: Private collection, Christchurch Condition: Good Exquisitely framed and presented. English-born and trained, Malcolm Mason studied at the Shrewsbury School of Art and the Ruskin School of Art, Oxford University. He emigrated to Aotearoa New Zealand in 1980 and has worked as a professional artist ever since, living and working in Diamond Harbour, Banks Peninsula. He taught art part-time at Christ’s College from 1997 to 2000. In 2009, Mason was invited to exhibit at the prestigious 7th edition of the Florence Biennale. He exhibits regularly throughout the South Island and has a sound reputation as an accomplished representational artist, with works held in local and overseas collections. Christchurch Cathedral is a typically assured work in a restrained palette. Mason’s semi-impressionistic brushwork captures dappled sunlight playing across the stones of the western front, a poignant reminder of our much-loved cathedral before 2011.
