Geoff Tune was born in Gisborne in 1947 and attended high school here before attending the Elim School of Fine Arts at the University of Auckland. Although he has remained in Auckland he has continued to create series of works that acknowledge his strong connections to the East Coast. His work is held in art museum, university and private collections. He was involved in community education before becoming the Founding Head of the Manukau School of Visual Arts at the Manukau Institute of Technology, Auckland, in 1993. He has been a full-time artist since 2008.

PAULNACHE and Tairāwhiti Museum and Art Gallery are collaborating in bringing this retrospective exhibition of Tune’s work to Gisborne. The museum will exhibit works dating from 1968 to 2000 while PAULNACHE Gallery will exhibit works dating from 2000 to the present.

These are a selection of installation photographs taken after the opening at PAUNACHE at the floortalk the following day at Tairawhiti Museum and Art Gallery.
