NZ connection in artUS

ArtUS magazine featured reviews of two exhibitions by NZ artists in its February edition: Michael Parekowhai at Sydney’s Roslyn Oxley Gallery and Simon Reece’s High Tide exhibition at the Contemporary Art Centre in Vilnius, Lithuania. Formerly known as Art & Text, ArtUS changed its name when founding editor Paul Foss moved from his native Australia to Los Angeles in the late 1990s. As Wellington-based art blog Over the Net notes, “When he was editor of Art & Text, Paul Foss always gave New Zealand art good space.” It looks like he means to carry on as he started.
