Gil Hanly, Pat Hanly in Studio with Tamsin (c. 1968)
Gil Hanly is one of New Zealand’s best-loved photographers. For more than five decades she has documented the people of New Zealand at times of great social change, with a special focus on the protest movement. Many of her images of New Zealanders in protest are internationally famous. She is also our most prolific and widely published garden photographer. Gil and painter Pat Hanly (1932-2004) have been at the heart of New Zealand’s art and peace movements and her images record thousands of amazing social events and personalities.
Curated especially for the Auckland Festival of Photography, Gil Hanly – Artists in Situ features portraits of best-beloved and emerging Kiwi artists at work, providing rare glimpses into the most intimate and vital part of an artist’s working life – the studio.
