Description:
Ted Bullmore trained at Canterbury University School of Fine Arts in the 1950s and at Auckland Teachers' College. He spent ten years in London living as an artist and teaching part-time. He returned to New Zealand in 1969 to teach art at Rotorua Boys High School until his death.
The wide range of material in the collection covers almost every facet of Bullmore's life. There are photographs, diaries, letters, catalogues, audio and videotapes. There is a rich section on the artist's life and work overseas from 1959 to 1969, giving an insight into the London art world during the decade of the swinging sixties. The period after his return to New Zealand is also well documented and includes material on his commemorative exhibitions staged in 1979, 1981 and 1988-1989.
