Frances Hodgkins and Morocco
Starting Date: Wednesday, 28 April 2010
Finishing Date: Sunday, 29 August 2010
This exhibition uses watercolours, contemporary photographs and the artist's letters to explore the four and a half months which Frances Hodgkins spent in Morocco in 1902–1903, and the influence of this adventure on her later career. The Dunedin art collectors, Mr and Mrs David Theomin, whose visit to Tangier coincided with Hodgkins's, are a second focus, for the exhibition includes the picture they commissioned from her and some of the artefacts they bought there, generously lent by Olveston.
