Listing Details

Trevor Moffitt (1936–2006) graduated from the University of Canterbury School of Fine Arts in 1959. Moffitt was New Zealand's leading narrative painters. 

In September 2001 a retrospective show of Trevor Moffitt’s work titled Woman was held at the Warwick Henderson Gallery in Parnell, Auckland.

Below is a quote from the review by T.J McNamara published in New Zealand Herald.

This retrospective show is titled Women and there is a large group of works from
1976-77 that are nudes and nude portraits as well as a dozen or more paintings from
Moffitt's Human Condition Series.

The nudes are solid flesh, their lumpish bodies matched by truculent expressions.
One characteristic is often emphasised - black hair in Nude Model, a curtain of
yellow hair in Nordic with the addition of a bleak mouth indicated by a single brush
stroke.

In the best of these paintings the women have a sense of place. Young, confident,
Angela No. 1, with her prominent pubic hair, is set against a door with a stained-
glass panel that gives an evocative sense of time and place.
