Presentation Transcript

  1. Paintings by Contemporary Maori artists “The contemporary maori art movement grew out of the impact of colonisation and the introduction to new tools, new philosophies , new materials, and the huge social changes partly accepted and partly forced on Maori people. The celebrated maori Leader Te Kooti, was to play a large part in radical changes to Maori art with his painted poupou in his ancestral house RONGOPAI. Another major influence was the world wars when Maori travelled overseas and saw the great artworks of Europe, Africa and Asia. Exposing the world to a Maori race who previously focussed on the insularity of a simple country life, was to create a massive change in the next generation to follow.” (quote taken from pg.6 “Forever Buck Nin”

  17. “lilBtkTiz” by Saffron Te Ratana Mixed media on paper 2001

  18. Close up of painting by Ratana Much of Saffrons work is in response to intuitive ideas about application of paint as a sensual medium in its own right. She combines layers of opaque and transparent colours and images and scraping and scratching back surfaces, drawing over parts with a range of drawing tools.

  19. “ Tribal Affiliations / groups – NgatiKahungunu, Ngatipahauwera “ by Sandy Adsett, Acrylic on paper Sandy translates traditional maoriartforms such as Taniko, Tukutuku and kowhaiwhai into contemporary abstract and very carefully executed geometric compositions and rh,ythmical compositions that tell stories about maori culture, creation themes, and heritage.

  20. “ Awhiowhio – whirlwind “ by Sandy Adsett

  21. “ Kahurangi” by Sandy Adsett, acrylic on board

  22. “He Rau Kawakawa” by NgataiharuruTaepa2006 “For me kowhaiwhai is an expression of the way our ancestors saw the world in their time. Their achievement using positive and negative spaces , was to have the colours interact simultantaneously.” He Rau Kawakawa is a lament and also a celebration of life , of those who have departed. The kawakawa is a medicinal plant and the artist sees this work as a rongoa for those left behind. It reminds him of a WHAKATAUKI “ pursue the unseen/ unatainable”
