Opening: 5.30pm, Friday 25 June 2010
Works by Rangi Kipa, Julie Paama-Pengelly, Jeanette Rata, Katie Tua, Kereama Taepa, Jessica Paraone and the Museum of True History. How do the recent practices of these seven artist/educators reflect their changing visions?
This exhibition features the work of seven artists who have made part contributions to Maori arts education in the Whakatane District. The proverb from which the show takes its name – Matariki ki tua o nga whetu - suggests that we should ‘search the stars’ and describes the artist-educators’ role as one to consider historic approaches and look beyond what appears to be accepted reality in order to forge new artistic practices.
