"Five Māori painters explores the work of Robyn Kahukiwa, Emily Karaka, Kura Te Waru Rewiri, Saffronn Te Ratana and Star Gossage, highlighting the deep connections between Māori painting traditions and contemporary art practice. Beautifully illustrated essays reveal the diversity of individual approaches to painting and the artists' shared concerns. Together with these essays, discussions of traditional Māori art practices and insights into each artist's technique show the enduring power of painting to record and reinterpret history, and respond to contemporary life."--Book jacket.
