More about books and catalogues

“The girl is on the threshold of fame.  She too is a Maori and her's is one of those voices that come once in a long, long time.  She herself has beauty, dignity, and that depth of character that with her voice will surely lead her to fame.  Kiri Te Kanawa is the essence of all that is best in the Maori race.”

Peter McIntyre. (1966) Peter McIntrye’s Pacific. A.H & A.W Reed Ltd, Wellington.

 
Jonathan Gooderham

Jonathan Gooderham established his first Gallery, Jonathan Grant Gallery, in 1984. Jonathan has dealt in traditional and contemporary paintings of the highest quality from the 18th through to the 21st Century. He assists collectors to select quality art pieces, providing a scholarly background to each painting, advising on framing, hanging, insurance and all other aspects of collecting.

In 1989 Jonathan purchased ARTIS Gallery and moved both galleries to their current location at 280 Parnell Road, Parnell, right in the heart of the Creative Quarter of Auckland City. Today Jonathan Grant Gallery & ARTIS Gallery sit side by side offering clients a selection of both classical and contemporary art. In 2012 a third gallery space was developed to exhibit the gallery’s sculpture collection. The Basement Gallery offers clients the opportunity to view large scale sculptures and paintings from the stockroom.

Jonathan has also undertaken extensive research on the works of New Zealand expatriate artist, Frances Hodgkins.
