Today marks 3 years since the pioneer pop and conceptual artist, Billy Apple died. 

Billy Apple® | Progressives and Other Self-Portraits currently on at Starkwhite Gallery is the first exhibition staged in Aotearoa New Zealand since the artist’s death. 

The show centres on an extended series of Progressives: experimental self-portraits Apple made between 1963 and 1967, as well as works from Apple’s Paids and Head Height collection. 

Sofia had the privilege to speak with Billy’s wife and partner, Mary Apple, who has also been a key member of ‘Team Apple’ for over 25 years about Billy and this show.
