  • The Mäori House Down in the Garden: a Benign Colonialist Response to Mäori Art and the Mäori Counter-Response
    THE MÄORI HOUSE DOWN IN THE GARDEN: A BENIGN COLONIALIST RESPONSE TO MÄORI ART AND THE MÄORI COUNTER-RESPONSE ROGER NEICH Auckland Museum / University of Auckland Implicitly or explicitly, academic studies of the arts of the Pacific have, at least until recently and before the interest in ethnoaesthetics, been exclusively concerned with Western responses to these arts. Most of the explicit literature has focused on the responses of European explorers, missionaries, artefact collectors, scientists, art critics and artists. This article surveys another very particular European response to Mäori art that has not previously been considered. Its subject is the response of colonialist/imperialist landholders who, with their landscape artists and gardeners, created what is often colloquially referred to as “the Mäori house down in the garden”. This subject of study is a direct development from my earlier work on the history of Mäori carving in the Rotorua area (Neich 2001). I began to notice that many of the carved houses I was studying had ended up in English and New Zealand gardens. I started to wonder how and why this had happened. This led me into an investigation of the history of English picturesque landscape gardens and the garden follies that were often placed in them. I realised that these Mäori houses in English gardens had been assimilated into a completely different and ancient English tradition. What I was actually dealing with was the debris of the conjuncture of two great traditions, both extending back over about 300 years at least. One tradition was the construction of carved Mäori houses, evidenced in pre-contact times by the carved house excavated at Kohika in the Bay of Plenty and the carved house seen by Cook and Banks at Tolaga Bay.

Despite this, very little research has been conducted into its origins and growth as a party. This thesis examines that period of the Reform Party’s development, beginning in the late 1880s and ending with the formation of the National Government in 1915. It argues that a ‘reform’ identity began to emerge at the 1887 election and that in the 1890s the Opposition to the Liberals continued to refine ‘reform’ ide- als. Furthermore, the establishment of the National Association in 1891 provided the Opposition with an extra-parliamentary organisation. This meant that it was better organised than the Liberals, and not the disunited group that some have previously characterised it as. Although the Opposition had relatively good polit- ical organisation, it was unable to win an election during the 1890s because its political message did not resonate with the electorate. In the first decade of the twentieth century the Opposition transformed itself into the Reform Party, beginning with the formation of the Political Reform League in 1905, and then taking the name Reform Party in 1909.

    The Wairarapa Wealthy in Public and Private, 1876–1913 By Joseph Cruden A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington 2015 Abstract Social histories of New Zealand’s colonial wealthy usually focus on those who left personal papers, ignoring those who left no major records. What is more, histories of the wealthy have tended to focus on the South Island—there is no reason to assume that the North Island rich were the same. This thesis attempts to address both these imbalances by approaching wealthy individuals in colonial Wairarapa systematically—locating all testators who died between 1876 and 1913, leaving estates worth £10,000 or more. This process produces a cohort of sixty-five, mainly farmers and mostly of middle-class origins. Testamentary records demonstrate that in private, the rich stayed true to their origins by splitting their wealth evenly. Other forms of biographical information, most notably newspaper obituaries and Cyclopedia entries, show that public life was different. Here, the rich departed from their origins; whereas community involvement and charitable works had been an important aspect of middle-class identity in Britain, the colonial experience forced wealthy capitalists to redefine public status. Throughout, this thesis demonstrates the importance of regional social histories in New Zealand by thinking ‘under as well as across the nation’—extending South Island scholarship of the wealthy into the North Island and examining the manifestation of large historical forces close-up in communities of individuals. i ii Table of Contents List of Figures....................................................................................................................

    MASSEY COMMEMORATIVE ISSUE MASSEY COMMEMORATIVE Manawatu Journal Of History, MASSEY COMMEMORATIVE ISSUE, 2014 Cover illustration: The Manawatu Flows On, 1993. John Bevan Ford. Collection of Massey University Library. Reproduced by permission. John Bevan Ford (1930-2005) was born in Christchurch. His mother was of Ngati Raukawa ki Kapiti ancestry and his father of English/German descent. He lived in the Manawatu from 1974, when he came to work at Massey University. John was a full time painter for the last twenty years of his life. This painting has its origins in an invitation to travel to the Netherlands, with a series of works commemorating, and giving a Ma-ori perspective on, the anniversary of Dutch explorer Abel Tasman’s arrival in New Zealand in 1642. The artist has used a pen loaded with liquid acrylics, on watercolour paper. The taniko border of the cloak above the land signifi es mana, and that the land is a land of distinction; the fl oating threads emanating from the sacred upper edges of the cloak symbolise the local people’s whakapapa (genealogy), and show that the space above the land is an active space. Below, the Manawatu River fl ows out of Te Apiti, the Manawatu Gorge, and meanders across the plains. The scroll-like fi gure above the gorge represents the region’s fi rst navigator, the pre-Ma-ori taniwha (spirit) Okatia, who became a totara tree and carved out the path of the river on his way from the Wairarapa, east of the ranges, to the west coast. The canoe of the next navigator, Kupe, can be seen to the left of Okatia.

  • Ka Mua, Ka Muri-Walking Backwards Into the Future: an Environmental History of the South Wairarapa Region 1984- 2016
    Ka Mua, Ka Muri-Walking Backwards into the Future: An Environmental History of the South Wairarapa Region 1984- 2016 By Eleanor Jane Rainford A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington 2017 2 3 Abstract ‘Ka mua, ka muri’, Walking backwards into the future, is a Māori proverb that aptly describes the findings of this thesis. That we should look to the past to inform the future is arguably the purpose of history, yet we have to walk back far enough. Tracing back from the present, this thesis will address what has driven political, economic, environmental and social change within the South Wairarapa region from 1984 to the present day. The region has experienced significant changes to its physical and social environment over the past thirty years. Many modern historians have attributed the key changes of this period, such as agricultural intensification, diversification, rising unemployment and environmental degradation, to the economic re-structuring of the Fourth Labour Government. This thesis will argue that these changes, and neoliberal reform itself, are consequent of much longer historiographical trends. Examination of the historical context and legacies of the intensification of dairy farming, rise of the viticulture industry, and the relationship between Ngāti Kahungunu and Rangitāne o Wairarapa and their whenua, reveals complexities in the history of the region that histories of neoliberal change commonly conceal. The identification of these long running historiographical trends aides understanding of the historical context in which neoliberal reform occurred, and provides alternative narratives for the changes that have occurred over the past thirty years.

    [ Masterton District- Registered Heritage Items n (NZHPT Registration includes the whole premises) r, J Awamaru, 20 McKenna Street (RC II) n D D J J Awamaru is a single-storey Edwardian Bay Villa. It has four bay windows, a verandah, and porches at both the entry and service area. Both its principal bay windows are angled bays, one rectangular in plan with a pitched, pedimented roof, the other onion turreted in Queen Anne J style over a quadripartite bay. Internally the main rooms are enhanced by the articulation of their windows, giving good views to the garden and beyond. The principal bedrooms, family 1 room and lounge have a 4.2 metre stud, and a number of original features and finishes can be found in these rooms. There is also a meat cellar. The house is sited on a very large section. There are three accessory buildings (including a J coach house/stables, a gazebo relocated from St Brides Convent) and large gates. Elsewhere on the grounds there are mature and historic native trees (a principal feature of the grounds is a kahikatea, estimated to be over 600 years old), mature exotic trees and regenerating native bush. A significant feature is it's setting adjacent to Garlands Bush. J Annedale Station Woolshed (RC I) ] ] ] The Annedale property is of considerable historic value. Begun in the 1870s under JP Penny as a bush covered run, Valentine Smith bought it in 1880 but sold it only three years later to Thomas Williams and William Beetham the owners of Brancepeth.

  • Maori Modernism
    Maori Modernism Referring to Maori Modernism, discuss the relationship between Western Modernism, the nation-state, the art-world and indigenous culture. Maori Modernism combines respect for the traditional techniques and motifs of Maori visual art with keen self-awareness and political activism to protest, educate and energise the viewer. This essay examines the political, social and art milieu that gave rise to the Maori Modernist movement. Legitimation is the key focus of this essay, and I will argue that New Zealand’s contemporary identity as a unique Pacific nation is legitimated through the creation of artworks that are a combination of traditional Maori art forms and Western Modernist practices. Paratene Matchitt’s City to Sea Bridge, 1992-1993 (Wellington: Civic Square) is used as the main illustration of this thesis, and is discussed in the second half of this essay. My argument will draw upon the art of the Maori Modernist movement to illustrate the interconnected relationships between the nation-state, Western Modernism, indigenous culture and the art-world. I will show that ruling classes have used the art world to legitimate their position and their superiority over indigenous peoples; and, similarly, that Western Modernism required the attention of the art world to legitimate it as “real” art. This attention has also been focussed on indigenous cultures, bringing them from the ethnographic museum into the art world in a process that legitimates them and their causes as real and important in the contemporary world. In turn their presence in galleries legitimates the art world as an evolving and relevant mirror of society.
