Reviews

A daughter's clear labour of love has brought to light the little-known collaborative efforts of three creative individuals on twelve New Zealand buildings. Hackshaw has delved into archival material and paired this with an informative range of essays by expert contributors. A set of powerfully evocative photographs by the author provide a strong visual argument on their own. Her work is an intimate tribute and a classic example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Judges' comments, 2022 Ockham New Zealand Book Awards


A set of powerfully evocative photographs by the author provide a strong visual argument on their own. Her work is an intimate tribute and a classic example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts -- Ockham judging panel 2022 A rewarding investigation into of one of the great artistic collaborations of twentieth century New Zealand -- John Daly-Peoples Collaboration sits at the core of this wonderful book; it is in the subtitle, reinforced throughout the text – both academic and personal . . . The result is a successful reframing of the works of already well-published artists and architect, providing a simultaneous view of art through architecture, and architecture through art -- Lynda Simmons This is a meticulously crafted chronicle describing a symbiotic relationship between art and architecture . . . -- Maggie Hubert A superbly designed and illustrated volume showcasing, among other things, a little-known aspect of the painter Colin McCahon’s work -- Jenny Nicholls
