YES TOMORROW

Published to accompany and extend Kate Newby’s full-gallery exhibition ‘YES TOMORROW’, this book features two photographic series produced and/or selected by the artist, interleaved with an essay by writer and curator Christina Barton. The first series, ‘On the benefits of building’, 2020–21, is a carefully choreographed selection of Newby’s disposable camera images taken from the moment she arrived in Aotearoa New Zealand to undertake the exhibition, through to her travels immediately in the wake of its opening. These give intimate insights into the artist’s sources and processes and provide glimpses of her works in production and during installation. In the second series, Newby arranges the installation photographs produced by the Gallery into a sequence that takes readers through her personal version of the exhibition.
