Summary:
"Made Active explores ideas of 'action' through painting, sculpture, installation and performance art, including a range of works from contemporary New Zealand, Australian and American artists. The exhibition, made possible by long-time Gallery supporters Chartwell Trust, reveals how the Chartwell Collection has developed from 1974 until the present day, showing artists who explore gesture, action and its effects."--Publisher description.
