A beautiful and important book about the remarkable collaboration between the modernist architect James Hackshaw (a member, for a time, of the famous Group Architects), the painter Colin McCahon and the then young sculptor Paul Dibble on 12 New Zealand buildings - from churches to school halls. Drawing on interviews with James Hackshaw before his death and on the McCahon archive, this book brings into the light a body of work and a collaboration that has been little known or examined, even by old McCahon hands. Richly illustrated with Hackshaw' s plans, McCahon' s drawings, letters and journal entries, and contemporary images of the surviving buildings and artworks, expert essays by Peter Simpson, Julia Gatley, Peter Shaw and Alexa Johnston complete the package.
Bridget Hackshaw is the daughter of James Hackshaw. Before her father' s death in 1999, she interviewed him about this body of work and has researched and photographed the buildings and artworks resulting from his collaboration with Colin McCahon and Paul Dibble. Bridget previously worked as an English teacher then as an advisor and lecturer in teacher education. She has a Master of Arts from the University of London and in 2019 she completed a course in architectural photography at the London College of Communication. She is the producer of a film directed by Christopher Dudman about the Hackshaw, McCahon and Dibble collaboration.
