At the heart of the Hanly House project is a story of two of New Zealand’s most significant modern artists.
Pat, a painter and Gil, a documentary photographer, contributed significantly to Aotearoa’s social, political and cultural landscape.
Pat Hanly
As a painter, Pat was renowned for his colour works and social conscience, creating work that challenged New Zealand society and its place in the Pacific – and also evoked great joy.
Gil Hanly
Gil’s documentary
photography captured New
Zealand’s tumultuous political
landscape including the
Springbok Tour, the anti-
nuclear movement and many
Waitangi Day commemorations.

This timely monograph celebrates a remarkable life’s work and acknowledges Hanly’s singular role within the history of New Zealand art. Featuring nearly 300 colour plates and over 50 photographs, it offers an unprecedented record of Hanly’s effervescent, brilliant paintings, many of which have achieved iconic status. It also takes us into the endlessly inventive world of watercolours, prints and drawings, before widening its view to present his achievement as a muralist.
