2. Public Lecture: Museum Building Theatrette, Massey University, Wellington, New Zealand<br />
Thursday 15 November 2007 4-5PM. Patrick Laviolette > Dr Patrick Laviolette is a senior lecturer at Massey University. One of his current research projects The Second Life of Things investigates the recycling of identities, history and heritage. In this lecture Laviolette will present through several international examples how historically significant relics and waste are transformed into works of art. He aims to challenge superficial views of ‘recyclia’ (or recycled art) and consider more conceptual, holistic perspectives by emphasising the conversion of everyday artefacts into recyclia and recycled narratives. The talk will explore the recovery of social memory and the recuperation of the past.<br />

3. Artist Talk: The Gus Fisher Gallery, Auckland, New Zealand<br />
Saturday 17 November 1pm, Blackboard lecture: John Reynolds > John Reynolds is a well-known New Zealand painter who has used "drawing" heavily as a language of uncertainties, chance associations, of flashes of meaning. His work embraces life’s complexity through drawing, rather than trying to simplify it. In the Blackboard Lecture, John Reynolds will explore the texts in his I Tell You Solemnly installation, a site-specific work made for the foyer in response to the gallery's dramatic architecture. This installation is on show until Sat 24 November. Reynolds' Speaking Truth to Power is also on show in Gallery Two.<br />
