Those staying in Dunedin hotels who like art have a chance to see some of the finest works by New Zealand's artists up until March 2012.

Beloved is a showcase of the finest items in the gallery's collection, which has been compiled over 125 years, while the pieces themselves date from the last 600 years.

The gallery states: "The exhibition and accompanying publication honour the history of the collection, paying particular attention to some of the better known and favourite works."

Art fans can see the exhibition until March 25th, with the venue open every day except Christmas Day.

Other exhibitions on at the gallery at the same time include The French Connection, featuring works by 1930s impressionist Frances Hodgkinson.

Those visiting the centre on February 6th can enjoy more than just art, with historian Bill Dacker marking Waitangi Day with a talk on Maori life and history in the lower half of the South Island.
