A painter, a sculptor and an architect collaborated in the 1960s and 70s to create unique churches, chapels, schools and private houses - all with a distinctive Kiwi character. "Big deal" you might think, until you realise we're talking about Colin McCahon, Paul Dibble and James Hackshaw. James' daughter Bridget spoke to her father not long before he died in 1999 about the projects the three worked on. Later she went in search of the remaining buildings to photograph them, which has inspired a film about it. Now she collaborates with a number of writers to tell the full story in a book called The Architect and the Artists. Bridget tells Lynn Freeman the three men worked well together, despite very different backgrounds and personalities.
