Visual arts to soak in during spring

From Upbeat, 1:20 pm on 19 September 2017

David Alsop returns with what’s worth soaking in during spring. He shines the spotlight on current arts policies and what they have meant for the visual arts in the lead up to this week’s election. He also looks at what’s on at the Auckland Art Gallery, Laurence Aberhart’s photography at Christchurch Art Gallery and the late Sir Paul Holmes art collection.
