Charity Wine Auction Posters

Each year piece of artwork is commissioned to be auctioned at the annual Hawke's Bay Charity Wine Auction and a limited number of posters of this artwork are produced for sale.

The 2010 poster is now on sale (pictured on the right). The painting is by Piera Mc Arthur and is titled "wine Tasters". “This is the second time Piera has been chosen as the wine auction artist,” says Graeme Milne Cranford Hospices fundraising, communications and marketing manager. “She commands such a strong following that it made sense for us to engage her once again.” 

The painting was inspired by Piera’s memory of Russian puppet shows, which are lively, vibrant and “go back into the mists of time”. “They are still a lively and amusing part of Russian cultural life, and tend to be satirical” says Piera. “Against a brilliant yellow background, and flanked by the dramatically dark stage curtains, two figures sample a vintage wine. One may well wonder what comments they are making... learned, enthusiastic, pretentious, or otherwise. That’s why I call this painting "Wine Tasters", and leave the rest to the imagination.”


Limited stocks of posters from previous years are also currently available. All posters are priced at $29.50 inclusive of GST.
