- October 18 — November 16, 2024HŌHUA THOMPSON | Tuku / TransferWorking at scale, Hōhua Thompson's work reflects on intergenerational knowledge transmission, storytelling and kaitiakitanga. His practice combines traditional Māori art forms such as whakairo and tukutuku with modern materials and processes to communicate stories from his own whakapapa, and to examine how these stories may apply to wider Māori communities. Alongside newly created works, his first dealer gallery exhibition in Tāmaki Makaurau will introduce local audiences to significant artworks previously exhibited in major public galleries in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington: The Dowse Art Museum and City Gallery Wellington.

- November 22 — December 21, 2024HEATHER STRAKA | Isolation HotelTrish Clark Gallery is pleased to present Heather Straka’s solo exhibition, Isolation Hotel, the acclaimed series’ first presentation in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. Originally conceived as a SCAPE project and installed at the Canterbury Museum in 2022, Isolation Hotel navigates time and distance, of relatively short duration but severe implications, that populations endured in pandemic times. With her characteristic wit and piercing insight, Straka positions her lone protagonists in carefully constructed film sets, portraying with a remarkable depth of feeling the alienation of isolation.

Widely acclaimed for her masterful control over glass, Amsel works in dialogue with her natural environment to imbue her sculptures with dynamic energy, and these new pieces bring verve at scale, both very large and small, exploring the limits of her chosen medium. A graduate of the Royal College of Arts in London, her work is held in major museum collections including Victoria and Albert Museum, London; Corning Museum of Glass, USA; Crafts Council Collection, London; Glasmuseet Ebeltoft, Denmark; Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa; Ulster Museum, Ireland; Montreal Museum, Canada; and Glassammlung Ernsting, Germany.

- September 13 — October 11, 2024AMANDA GRUENWALD | Floor PaintingsAmanda Gruenwald’s recent paintings represent a bold new direction – initially inspired by the markings found on her studio drop cloths, where drips, pools, wipes, splashes and sprays of excess paint have accumulated in the process of creating her earlier works. Her new paintings respond to the potential of this residue, navigating the liminal space between intention and concurrent attempts to harness the role of chance.

In an exhibition that reflects on the scale and ambition of this project after 10 years, Dadson's range of performative practice is positioned within a compelling conceptual framework that addresses his long-standing environmental concerns.

Working across a range of media: video, photography, painting, and sculpture, this curated selection of satisfying and perhaps unexpected works, newly made to vintage, speak to a singularity of focus on the power of a limited palette, testifying to the enduring allure of working within the constraints of a singular tone.
