Take a deep dive into Pacific Art, focusing on works in Tai Moana I Coastlines: Art in Aotearoa, guided by Ane Tonga (Curator, Pacific Art) and Marleen Hartjes (Senior Manager, Schools and Learning). You will be able to look closer than ever at how Pacific artists are harnessing performance, sculpture and customary practices in service to their communities. This ‘Salon of Close Looking’ will be conversational and interactive as we unpack artworks together through discussion and close looking.
