The Estate of Gregory Flint (1952 - 2010)
Marie Shannon, In the Gregory Flint Gallery(1992)
In late February as a component of the New Collectors' art auction, we will be offering the library and art collection of Gregory Flint who sadly passed away earlier this year. Greg was one of the central figures in the development of the dealer gallery scene in the 1990s and was responsible for firstly exhibiting many now-key bodies of 1990s work including seminal shows by Bill Hammond, Ronnie van Hout, Michael Parekowhai and many more. Included in the collection are works by many of the artists that he showed along with others whose work he admired including: Bill Hammond, Bill Hammond and Gavin Chilcott (collaborative), Tony Lane, Marie Shannon, Ronnie van Hout, Peter Peryer, Chris Heaphy, Merilyn Tweedie, Peter Gibson-Smith and others.
