Angus, Rita (1908–70). New Zealand painter, mainly of portraits and landscapes. She was considered one of the leading figures in New Zealand art, particularly in the 1940s. Working in both oils and watercolours, she painted in a forthright, brightly coloured style that won her a reputation as a pioneer of modernism in her country. She also painted under her married name, Rita Cook.
