'Lyttelton legend' Bill Hammond remembered for his 'immense' contribution to New Zealand's art

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hey neighbours,

The story of Aotearoa’s art history cannot be told without mentioning Bill Hammond’s work, Arts Minister Carmel Sepuloni said of the exalted artist following his death.

Hammond, one of New Zealand’s leading artists, was a legendary figure in his home in the port town of Lyttelton, just outside Christchurch.

One of his best known works, Fall of Icarus, is displayed at the Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū.

Were you familiar with Hammond, or his work?
