Reviews
It’s such a great thing that the gallery provides access to art for everybody through free entries.nnThe exhibitions are great. I especially enjoyed the Walters Prize 2024 exhibition, where the work of four artists who’ve been nominated for the prize. Their works are amazing!nnWhat I see as more critical is “The Robertson Gift” exhibition, where the art from a New York ‘philanthropist’ couple is shown. It is definitely great, that the general public has now access to its impressive collection and I understand that the museum has no other option than to show its gratitude for this gift. But the circumstances underlying this are fundamentally wrong.nnArt with cultural significance belongs to the public and it shouldn't be on the ultra-rich to decide where and if it is shown publicly. A strong democracy should be able to democratize access to culture.nnOwnership entails obligations.nnWe should not have to be grateful that billionaires fund the arts and provide their collections to the public when their wealth is taken from the public, to begin with.nnNonetheless, thanks to the great work of the curators and museum staff that are behind these brilliant exhibitions.
Don’t miss the classic donors’ collection with Degas, Monet, Picasso, Mondrian sculptures and paintings. Modern exhibits are stunning, appealing and disruptive -as well as participative-. Let yourself be surprised by an “impromptu”dancer and check for special performances such as Estrella, which was music & art by itself, a mixture of cultures, artistic expression and modernity & tradition July 2024. The entrance is free, is near Queen Street, there is a nice & friendly Cafe and walking around the exhibitions pays off even for a short visit.
Amazing collection of both classic and contemporary pieces of art. A must go place if you’re visiting Auckland and want to learn more about the hsitory of the country as it presents a great variety of Māori artwork. Each floor has something else to offer, I was pleasantly surprised to find out about the basement level, which presented artworks of young high school art students from Auckland. Entry is free and facility is very spacious and clean!
Excellent collections of Arts in Auckland CBD. There is free entry and all the arts are nicely displayed. There are lockers you can use as you are not allowed to use backpacks. There are areas for children to do some arts works. Allowed at least 1 hr to enjoy all the arts works. You can take pictures without flash. Very happy with the visit. Highly recommended for arts lovers.
It's spacious and free. The iPad-interactive space is very awesome! The store also sell many unique products from the exhibition.nWe should put big bag on the locker provided free
