There's going to be a great talk at the Adam this weekend (Saturday 8th August, 2pm) by Emeritus Professor John Davidson regarding the influence of James K. Baxter on Colin McCahon and other artists. McCahon and Baxter were close friends and his painting, Walk (Series C) currently showing in the Adam exhibition The Specious Present, references Baxter's passing.
