In our final post on commissioned art we look at Richard Serra's 257m long Te Tuhirangi Contour. Commissioned by Alan Gibbs for his property (known as The Farm) on the Kaipara, it is the finest piece of site-specific sculpture in the country and one of many remarkable works situated in his art park. The lineup of international artists at The Farm includes: Daniel Buren, Andy Goldsworthy, Anish Kapoor, Sol LeWitt, Tony Oursler and George Rickey.
You can read more on the art at The Farm in a conversation between Rob Garrett and Alan Gibbs published in Art World AUS/NZ edition.
