Your Friend The Enemy
In April this year a group of New Zealand and Australian artists, filmmakers and historians are planning to travel to the Gallipoli Peninsula to make work towards the exhibition entitled 'Your Friend the Enemy'.
This World War 1 commemorative exhibition will tour New Zealand and Australia from 2015 onwards.
Prominent New Zealand artists Michael Shepherd, John Walsh and Stanley Palmer, whose own experience is relayed in the video, have been invited to participate in the tour based on the calibre of their work and their special connection to Gallipoli.
The project is seeking funding here.
With the 2015 centenary of the Gallipoli campaign this is an opportunity to support New Zealand Art on a national and international level and participate in the telling of the ANZAC story.
Lest we forget.
