Venue: Pūmanawa Gallery

A collection of 13 iconic builds from Christchurch pre-earthquake, displayed for the general public alongside a book called Ghosts On Every Corner.

Ghosts On Every Corner is a solo exhibition by Ghostcat (Mike Beer) consisting of scratch-built models of iconic buildings that used to exist in Christchurch such as the Atami Bathhouse, Cathedral Square Police kiosk, Repertory Theatre and the Harbour Light Theatre.

The project celebrates a lost city of iconic builds pre-earthquake; bringing those childhood memories back to life. 

All works and prints will be available for sale.  

 

On Saturday 3 May, the exhibition will be accessible again for one day only during the Open Christchurch festival.
