Philippa Blair (1945-2025)
It is with great sadness that we share the news our dear friend and fellow artist Philippa Blair has left us. It has been an honour to exhibit her work and work with her over the years. Philippa was fearless in her painting, honest in her vision and generous in her spirit. She attended Ilam School of Art in the 1960s and exhibited in NZ and internationally, notably in the US where she lived for 20 years. Her passion and commitment to art never faltered. We offer our condolences to her family and acknowledge their loss.
In November we will host a full exhibition to celebrate Philippa Blair’s incredible work.
