For one week only Kregar’s new sculpture project will take over the space in Auckland’s hottest new precinct. 200 porcelain sheep in high coloured national rugby jerseys ooze kitsch as they celebrate the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand. But is Kregar making a mockery of our national icon, or paying them homage? Are we celebrating the Cup or denigrating its supporters as a mindless herd? Kregar the trickster evades a simple answer, leaving us to make sense of his flock.
Join us at North Wharf this week or at the launch on Tuesday 18 October, 5 – 8pm.
