These men and women, sculpted by UC arts graduate Mark Whyte, are among those whose achievements in the second half of the twentieth century are remembered with pride and pleasure by the people of Christchurch. As many of them have strong links with the 茄子视频app官网, the sculptures have been gifted on loan to UC from the Canterbury Museum, where they will remain on our Ilam campus for the next two years. Hosting the Twelve Local Heroes collection is our way of honouring our community and the impact these 12 remarkable people have made on the city鈥檚 creative, sporting, business, and social life.
