Craig Potton Gallery + Store was inspired by Nelson-born conservationist and photographer, Craig Potton, and opened in September 2013.
Craig Potton is New Zealand’s best known landscape photographer and an ardent conservationist. In pursuit of his photography he has tramped and climbed extensively in New Zealand, its sub-Antarctic Islands, the Dry Valleys of Antarctica, the Nepal Himalaya, and more recently Poland, India and Iceland. For more than four decades he has documented the New Zealand wilderness, exploring relationships between the concept of artistic beauty and wilderness in the natural world.With the help of Catherine (Director) the gallery now showcases Craig’s extensive body of work as well as a carefully curated selection of books, gifts and accessories and fine art and jewellery from some of the most significant contemporary artists in New Zealand.
As a staff we pride ourselves on being customer-focused and are always available to help. If there is a particular image you are looking for, please ask, as Craig can often source the photograph you are after from his vast collection of transparancies.
