Grey, Red(Getting Older) exhibition

 

City Art Depot warmly welcomes everyone to attend the upcoming opening of

'Grey, Red (Getting Older)' by Francis van Hout.

5.30–7pm Tuesday 26th May 2026 in our gallery at 96 Disraeli Street, Christchurch.

 

Ōtautahi Christchurch-based painter Francis van Hout crafts geometric abstractions with adept sensibilities to paint materiality, colour and surface texture. These paintings are imbued with the characteristics that define van Hout's practice – attention to tone, grain, quality of structural lines and indeed his signature wit.
