Don Binney : Flight Path by Gregory O'Brien

Explore the vibrant life and artistic legacy of Don Binney (1940–2012), a multifaceted figure in New Zealand's cultural landscape. Renowned as a painter, printmaker, teacher, writer, and ornithologist, Binney's meteoric rise in the 1960s marked a defining era in the nation's art. His distinctive, stylized bird depictions became iconic. "Don Binney: Flight Path" traces his artistic journey from Te Henga / Bethells Beach, his creative stronghold, to his extensive travels across Aotearoa, Latin America, and Europe.

In this comprehensive monograph, acclaimed author and curator Gregory O’Brien delves into Binney's world, drawing on the artist's letters, journals, and writings. The book, richly illustrated with Binney's paintings, drawings, and prints, along with photographs and documentary materials, stands as the first extensive exploration of this influential twentieth-century New Zealand artist.
