{Suite} is proud to announce its representation of the estate of renowned New Zealand photographer Robin Morrison.
As well as his early black-and-white photojournalism, Morrison (1944-1993) is best known for his unpretentious portrayal of New Zealand landscapes, everyday lives and unique architecture. He had the rare gift of being able to connect with people from all walks of life; from iconic figures such as Sir Edmund Hilary, Janet Frame, and Dame Whina Cooper to shearing gangs, Anzac Veterans, and those living on the fringes of society.
In 1992, Morrison gifted his entire body of work of over 100,000 negatives and transparencies to the Auckland Museum, ensuring ongoing public access to this important resource of social history and photographic art.
Our first exhibition of Morrison’s work will be held at {Suite} during the Aotearoa Art Fair (1-4 May 2025) and will draw from a group of images known as ‘Decade of Days’, originally presented as an exhibition held at the Auckland Museum in 2013-2014.
