Toi Te Mana: An Indigenous History of Māori Art

Deidre Brown and Ngarino Ellis, with Jonathan Mane-Wheoki

Toi Te Mana is a comprehensive account of Māori art, from the time of the tūpuna (ancestors) to today, written by Māori art historians. Spanning 600 pages with over 500 images, this book takes readers on a journey through Māori art history, from ancestral weaving to contemporary artists at the Venice Biennale. It covers a wide range of art forms, including weaving, tattooing, carving, architecture, painting, sculpture, and digital media. The book offers insight into Māori artistic practice over 800 years, exploring individual artists, movements, and cultural events.
Toi Te Mana is an essential resource for anyone interested in Māori art and culture.
