None of us had the faintest idea where we were going [but] during 1938aEURO"39 . . . the town [Christchurch] was made strangely interesting for anyone like myself, [with the] scattered arrival of aEURO~the refugees'. All at once there were people among us who were actually from Vienna, or Chemnitz, or Berlin . . . who knew the work of Schoenberg and Gropius.aEURO" Anthony Alpers, 1985 From the 1930s through the 1950s, a substantial number of forced migrants aEURO" refugees from Nazism, displaced people after World War II and escapees from Communist countries aEURO" arrived in New Zealand from Europe. Among them were an extraordinary group of artists and writers, photographers and architects whose European modernism radically reshaped the arts in this country. In words and pictures, Strangers Arrive tells their story. Ranging across the arts from photographer Irene Koppel to art dealer and printmaker Kees Hos, architect Imric Porsolt to writer Antigone Kefala, Leonard Bell takes us inside New Zealand's bookstores and coffeehouses, studios and galleries to introduce us to a compelling body of artistic work. He asks key questions. How were migrants received by New Zealanders? How did displacement and settlement in New Zealand transform their work? How did the arrival of European modernists intersect with the burgeoning nationalist movement in the arts in New Zealand? Strangers Arrive introduces us to a talented group of aEURO~aliens' who were critical catalysts for change in New Zealand culture.
