CoCA - Centre of Contemporary Art Toi Moroki

Director & staff obviously work hard to connect the curated shows with the public. It's an historic and beautiful gallery venue and in this respect the recent shows strive to continue the history of ChCh & NZ visual art in challenging and contemporary contexts which adds enormous value. Having said that, I have yet to see a show over the last 12 months or so that I would describe as ground breaking or even stimulating. The last two shows I've been to have been strongly presented curatorialy in the introductory wall write-ups, but in my view the works in question themselves have been relatively weak and not lived up to their written descriptions or synopses. The vibe on opening nights, however, has been excellent with great discussions and comments but l definitely expected more from the artworks..l look forward to future shows
