art, by Māori art historians – from Polynesian voyaging waka to contemporary
Māori artists.
He toi
whakairo, he mana tangata.
Through
artistic excellence, there is human dignity.
Toi Te Mana is a landmark account of Māori art from
the time of the tūpuna (ancestors) to the present day.
In
600 pages and over 500 extraordinary images, this volume invites readers to
climb on to the waka for a remarkable voyage – from
ancestral weavers to contemporary artists at the Venice Biennale, from whare
whakairo to film, and from Te Puea Hērangi to Michael Parekōwhai.
The
authors explore a wide field of art practice: raranga (plaiting), whatu (weaving),
moko (tattoo), whakairo (carving), rākai (jewellery), kākahu (textiles), whare
(architecture), toi whenua (rock art), painting, photography, sculpture,
ceramics, installation art, digital media and film. And they do so over a long
time period – from the arrival of Pacific voyagers 800 years ago to
contemporary artists in Aotearoa and around the world today. Through
wide-ranging chapters alongside focused breakout boxes on individual artists,
movements and events, Toi Te Mana is a waka eke noa – an essential book
for anyone interested in te ao Māori.
Toi
Te Mana is a Māori art
history, written by Māori, given to the world.
Toitū te
whenua, toitū te tikanga, ka ora ngā toi.
When we hold
fast to our land and values, our art flourishes.
