Gow Langsford is delighted to present a landmark solo exhibition celebrating the work of Don Binney (1940-2012), one of Aotearoa’s most distinctive painters. With a remarkable practice that spanned over five decades, this exhibition honours a career deeply rooted in the artist’s sustained engagement with our native birds and distinctive landscapes. Ranging from Otago’s rolling hills to kererū (wood pigeon) soaring over Te Henga, this is the first major exhibition of Binney’s paintings in over 20 years, highlighting his enduring connection to place, form and the unique beauty of Aotearoa.

This exhibition invites viewers to follow Binney’s artistic journey, with a focus on his oil works from the 1960s and extending to one of his final paintings which he completed in 2010. A Flight Through Time offers a rare chance to view works held in private collections, the majority of which have not been publicly exhibited in many years.

Gow Langsford wishes to acknowledge all lenders for their generosity in making this exhibition possible.
