Art Theft

From Afternoons, 2:08 pm on 30 June 2015

An art heist in Whanganui has left gallery staff upset and police with no leads. Five works by artist, Rick Rudd, were stolen from the i-Site gallery on Taupo Quay, just before the floods on 20 June.

Greg Anderson, senior curator at the Sarjeant Gallery, talks to Simon Mercep about the works.

If anyone has information leading to the recovery of these artworks please contact Whanganui Police on 06 349 0600.
