Colin McCahon




In class we had to research a famous artist and I couldn't think of one so I decided to research Colin McCahon because my teacher suggested him.


Colin McCahon was a famous NZ artist born 1st August 1919 Timaru, passed away 27th May 1987 Auckland. He worked during his life as an artist but he also worked in art galleries and as a university lecturer. Some of his best work is the size of a wall! Colin McCahon started to experiment with cubism in his artwork after working with Mary Cockburn-Mercer in Melbourne. I like his work because it's all unique, style and everything.
