MĀORI CARVING – NGĀ MAHI A RUA

Early settlers from Polynesia brought carving techniques and patterns with them. However, over generations, a distinctive style of Māori carving evolved, in part no doubt because of New Zealand’s isolation.

In terms of wood, the first people were spoilt for choice. But finding materials for durable cutting edges was a challenge. Shell and bone were plentiful, but there was no ready substitute for the high-quality pearl shell widely used in the tropics. Obsidian and a hard form of argillite, quarried from a few sites and then traded, were soon in widespread use.

The most prized stone for carving was pounamu, a variety of jade also known as greenstone, which is found in the waterways of the western South Island. Te Wai Pounamu (Waters of Greenstone) is one of the South Island’s names.

Over the centuries, and before the advent of metal technology, Māori took the art of shaping stone, wood and bone to extraordinary heights, and distinctive regional styles evolved. Metal tools, with their sharper and more easily sharpened edges, transformed carving practice and styles. Cuts could be made deeper and more defined, and substantial projects, such as large buildings, became practicable.

Adornments, tools, containers, weapons, architectural features, sacred objects ‒ all are invested with the spirit of their makers and owners. They are among Te Papa’s greatest treasures. Today, the customary carving arts thrive, handed down by masters at highly regarded schools.

► This Tā Moko panel was created by master carver Tene Waitere (c.1853–1931, Ngāti Tarāwhai) in about 1896. Commissioned by August Hamilton to illustrate tattoo patterns, or moko, in his book on Māori art, its use of naturalism and sculptural forms makes it Waitere’s most innovative work.

A rich new history of life in postwar New Zealand, told through objects and images. The decades of the 1950s and 1960s continue to exert a powerful fascination, from Mad Men to Crown Lynn collectibles. In New Zealand, these postwar years have been remembered in popular culture as a ‘golden age’ of God, Queen and Country, full employment, the baby boom, Sir Edmund Hillary, and ‘Ladies, a plate!’ – as well as the birth of the teenager and the seedbed of later change. But what was life really like? Real Modern tells a vibrant and varied story of real life in this compelling era through images and, above all, objects. Through hundreds of stunning new photographs from Te Papa and collections nationwide, readers encounter not only much-loved vintage and retro memorabilia and mid- century design classics, but also ordinary, surprising and unique objects. Each is accompanied by lively, expert and informative text that links these pieces to the people who owned and used them, and to New Zealand’s wider social, political and cultural history.

Bronwyn Labrum is Head of New Zealand and Pacific Cultures at Te Papa. Prior to this she was an associate professor in the School of Design at Massey University.

Aotearoa New Zealand has been shaped by a long and dynamic history with the other islands of the Pacific, their people and their cultures. This ground-breaking book is the story of more than a thousand years of Pacific peoples in New Zealand – a millennium of exploration, encounter and cultural exchange, from the great migration journeys and the politically explosive dawn raids of the 1970s to Tana Umaga becoming the first Sāmoan to captain the All Blacks, and more. Tangata o le Moana puts Pacific viewpoints at its centre to reveal our shared history in fresh and surprising ways. Across fifteen essays written by leading historians and writers, every aspect of this history is touched upon, from migration and tourism to economics, politics, sport and the arts. A rich cache of oral histories, hundreds of historical and contemporary photos, archival documents, maps and images of museum objects and artworks makes Tangata o le Moana a rigorously researched, yet human and colourful, record of the story of New Zealand as a Pacific place. “Tangata o le Moana presents a comprehensive account . . . supported by incredible and never-before-published photographs . . . with well-chosen personal narratives. The photographs may be a major attraction. However, Pacific readers especially will enjoy setting their own remembrances against these rich historical timelines, as I did.” – New Zealand Listener

Through exclusive access to McLeavey’s extensive archive, this book offers remarkable insights into the artists McLeavey has represented across half a century. Far more than a simple biography, this is the big story of contemporary New Zealand art itself and an utterly fresh and compelling historical account of the birth of the modern art market and the status of art today. Winner: 2014 New Zealand Post Book of the Year; HarperCollins Publishers Award for Best Cover, 2014 PANZ Book Design Awards. Highly Commended: 2014 Museums Australasia Multimedia & Publication Design Awards
