Te Papa touring exhibition Rita Angus: New Zealand Modernist | He Ringatoi Hou o Aotearoa brings together 20 works by one of New Zealand’s most iconic 20th century artists, Rita Angus (1908–1970).

The works on display span Angus’s life and career as an artist, drawing out the themes of pacifism, feminism and nature, which shaped much of her work.

The exhibition includes many of Angus’s most important works, including Rutu (1951), Cleopatra (1938) and Central Otago (1953–56/1969).

Artwork: Rita Angus, Central Otago. Oil on board, 1953–56/1969. Collection of the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, gift of Douglas Lilburn, 1972.
