Art's Histories in Aotearoa New Zealand Jonathan Mane Wheoki
Art’s Histories in Aotearoa New Zealand Jonathan Mane Wheoki This is the text of an illustrated paper presented at ‘Art History's History in Australia and New Zealand’, a joint symposium organised by the Australian Institute of Art History in the University of Melbourne and the Australian and New Zealand Association of Art Historians (AAANZ), held on 28 – 29 August 2010. Responding to a set of questions framed around the ‘state of art history in New Zealand’, this paper reviews the ‘invention’ of a nationalist art history and argues that there can be no coherent, integrated history of art in New Zealand that does not encompass the timeframe of the cultural production of New Zealand’s indigenous Māori, or that of the Pacific nations for which the country is a regional hub, or the burgeoning cultural diversity of an emerging Asia-Pacific nation. On 10 July 2010 I participated in a panel discussion ‘on the state of New Zealand art history.’ This timely event had been initiated by Tina Barton, director of the Adam Art Gallery in the University of Victoria, Wellington, who chaired the discussion among the twelve invited panellists. The host university’s department of art history and art gallery and the University of Canterbury’s art history programme were represented, as were the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the City Gallery, Wellington, the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery, New Plymouth, the Dunedin Public Art Gallery and the University of Auckland’s National Institute of Creative Arts and Industries. The University of Auckland’s department of art history1 and the University of Otago’s art history programme were unrepresented, unfortunately, but it is likely that key scholars had been targeted and were unable to attend.

Melanie Roger took over the long running Anna Bibby Gallery in 2010, renaming the space Melanie Roger Gallery at the beginning of 2011. Today the gallery continues to work with and represent both established and emerging artists to present some of the best contemporary art in New Zealand to both local and international audiences and collectors. Says Melanie “I take a collaborative approach with the gallery. I am interested in supporting the creation of new and exciting work and developing artists’ careers both within New Zealand and internationally.” The gallery’s stable of artists includes longstanding relationships with Stanley Palmer, Gavin Hurley, Sam Mitchell and Kristy Gorman as well as newer rising talents such as Kirstin Carlin, Matt Ellwood, Tessa Laird, Erica van Zon and Tiffany Singh. As well, the Gallery works regularly with guest artists including Billy Apple, Peter Peryer, Patricia Piccinini and Victoria Munro on selected curatorial projects both within the space and externally at Art Fairs and pop up exhibitions. Melanie herself brings over twenty years of experience within the art world to the gallery. She has held senior management positions at Gow Langsford Gallery (Auckland / Sydney) and John Leech Gallery where she worked closely with senior artists such as Michael Parekowhai, Max Gimblett, Dick Frizzell, John Pule, Shane Cotton and Judy Millar, as well as Reuben Paterson, Sara Hughes and John Walsh nurturing and developing their careers. Previously she worked for four years at the Auckland Art Gallery in a diverse range of roles within public programmes, marketing, education and curatorial. She was Director of Roger Williams Contemporary from 2006 - 2008 working with Judy Darragh, Simon Morris, Jeena Shin and internationally Patricia Piccinini and Polixeni Papapetrou to name a few.

7. Contemporary
7. Contemporary Art The beginning of a contemporary art scene in Oceania must be seen against the background of the political and social upheavals which came as a result of the withdrawal of the European colonial powers and the creation of independent nation states in the Pacific from the 1960s to the 1980s. The connection of some Polynesian countries to New Zealand as the economically strongest Commonwealth member in the Southwest Pacific has caused a migration from the islands to the urban centres of New Zealand which still persists today. It was here that the migrants rediscovered their local cultures and traditional roots. At the same time they had direct access to Western art institutions and foundations and brought both perspectives together in an independent art scene. In the Melanesian part of Oceania, in contrast, there was no comparable connection with geographically closer Australia. Subsequently, no large diaspora communities developed there, and artists were denied access to the Western art market. Apart from French-administered New Caledonia, it was only in Papua New Guinea that a small, free art scene was able to develop, however, without any international support. 7.1 Contemporary Art in Polynesia Home to the largest number of gallery- and museum-based artists, New Zealand Aotearoa has become an important centre for contemporary Pacific art. Their respective art practices have explored a range of issues and concerns relating to notions of belonging, place and identity. Since the 1950s, Polynesians from Samoa, Niue, Tonga and the Cook Islands have migrated to New Zealand. Today, 15% of the total population of Auckland, the largest city with 1.5 million inhabitants, are Polynesians.

Fiona Clark Michael Lett 312 Karangahape Road Cnr K Rd & East St PO Box 68287 Newton Auckland 1145 New Zealand P+ 64 9 309 7848 [email protected] www.michaellett.com Fiona Clark Born in 1954, Inglewood, Taranaki, New Zealand Lives and works in Tikorangi, Taranaki, New Zealand Fiona Clark was born in Inglewood, Taranaki, in 1959, a rural background which formed the basis for her hands-on approach and direct attitude towards artistic practice, attributes which have aided her in the production of an expansive body of photographic work. While studying at the Elam School of Fine Arts between 1972-5, Clark began to develop a performance-based practice, before moving into photography in her final year. Performativity and the politics of identity would prove to be concepts which informed Clark’s later work, and these interests indirectly led her to document Auckland’s drag and transsexual community. These works provided the methodology for much of Clark’s later practice, especially in their emphasis on a collaborative approach and a sense of responsibility towards the images’ subjects, as seen in the then-controversial Dance Party series, which was subjected to censorship after being included in the Auckland Art Gallery’s 1977 group show The Active Eye. After returning to Taranaki, Clark embarked on a number of artistic projects encompassing a wide variety of subject matter: Maori fishing rights, body building, HIV-Aids and lesbian cultural histories. Recently, the shows Go Girl (2002-6) and For Fantastic Carmen (2016) represent a continuation of the documentary project which began with the Dance Party series, and which now spans four decades.

Final Funds Needed for Spectacular City Sculpture
News Release 19 June 2014 Page 1 of 12 Final Funds Needed For Spectacular City Sculpture The SCAPE Public Art Trust of Christchurch has launched a funding initiative to meet the final cost of installing a spectacular Neil Dawson sculpture, Fanfare, at the city’s gateway beside the northern motorway by the end of the year. Fanfare will be New Zealand’s largest public artwork, 24 metres high and weighing 25 tonnes, and featuring 360 wind-powered pinwheels able to be lit up on festive occasions. SCAPE Public Art Director, Deborah McCormick, said all but $360,000 of the $3.3 million needed to install the sculpture has already been raised and the latest initiative is intended to cover the final portion. “People and businesses can join our Fan Club and contribute set amounts from $1,000, $3,000 and $5,000, with a range of benefits and privileges, or donate any amount they wish. Supporters will have a share in an iconic sculptural legacy for the city and make a unique contribution to our changing future landscape.” Deborah McCormick said. Fanfare was made by Christchurch sculptor Neil Dawson for the City of Sydney to celebrate New Year in 2005 and was displayed hanging from the city’s harbour bridge. It was later gifted by the City of Sydney to the Christchurch City Council, which partnered with SCAPE Public Art to re-assemble the sculpture and raise funds to pay for its new installation. The sculptor has produced other large-scale sculptures, including Chalice in Cathedral Square, Christchurch, Ferns in Civic Square, Wellington and Feather from Afar in the International Finance Centre, Pudong, Shanghai.

In particular we are proud to offer an excellent collection of New Zealand photography from a private collector together with many other interesting consignments. Since returning to the office in May we have completed two auctions that had been on hold since April. Both of these events were remarkably successful and we would like to warmly thank our vendors who remained patient during the lockdown and all those who supported us at the viewings and attended the auctions, whether on-line at home or in person. It is extremely heartening to see that even in the most tumultuous of times, there is still a desire for art in our lives. During the recent lockdown period, like many I agreed with the slogans that suggested we should send 2020 back to where it came from. If only we could rewind and start again! The effect on businesses and families, the many disappointments of cancelled events and travel, will be felt for some time to come.
