  • At nearly 400 pages, this beautifully designed book is rich with large images of paintings, prints, sculptures, weaving, carving, ceramics, photographs and moving image artworks. The landscapes of Aotearoa New Zealand have long been a powerful source of inspiration for artists. This major new book explores the importance of whenua in our art history through the work of more than 100 of this country's most celebrated artists. Beginning in Te Waipounamu, our greenstone isle, and reaching outwards, across Aotearoa and beyond to Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, the Pacific, Whenua thoughtfully explores ideas of identity and belonging, kaitiakitaka, land use, migration, environmentalism and activism through a selection of important historical and contemporary artworks. A vibrant and very readable range of texts, interviews and perspectives by leading writers - including Su Ballard, Emalani Case, Huhana Smith, Cosmo Kentish-Barnes, Lily Lee, Hana O'Regan, Rebecca Rice, Matariki Williams and many more - provides insight into the many ways that whenua is fundamental to the visual language and identity of the arts in Aotearoa New Zealand.
