Review: "Parihaka: the Art of Passive Resistance explores the impact and legacy of one of the major events in the history of Aotearoa New Zealand: the invasion of Parihaka Pa, Taranaki, by the Crown in 1881. This publication brings together art, poetry and waiata from the past one hundred years, during which time Parihaka has inspired the painters Colin McCahon, Ralph Hotere and Tony Fomison, writers James K. Baxter, Harry Dansey and many others."Summary: "This book features over one hundred artworks exploring the legacy of Parihaka and its leaders, Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kakahi. Important new works commissioned from leading Maori, Pakeha and Pacific artists are reproduced in full colour. Alongside a rich array of historical and contemporary photographs, the book includes commissioned essays on the history, art, literature and contemporary significance of Parihaka, plus new poems by leading writers including J.C. Sturm, Ian Wedde, Elizabeth Smither and Alistair Te Ariki Campbell."Summary: "Drawing on previously unpublished manuscripts, many of the teachings and sayings of Te Whiti and Tohu - in Maori and English - are reproduced in full with extensive annotation by Te Miringa Hohaia. Parihaka: The Art of Passive Resistance reaches beyond the art and literary worlds to engage with cultural issues important to all citizens of Aotearoa New Zealand."--Jacket.
