Masterpieces with Vincent Ward

From Afternoons, 3:06 pm on 18 August 2016

Each week we get a well known guest on the show to nominate what they consider to be a masterpiece in their field. This week that masterpiece is a person, who has been nominated by  Vincent Ward, the New Zealand filmmaker and artist.

Vincent Ward has an exhibition opening this month at the Trish Clark gallery in Auckland, in which his canvas is the human body.
