    • Dr Nina Tonga - Moonwalking: Making Radical Art Histories in the Pacific
      • Join Nina Tonga for the annual Gordon H Brown Lecture, hosted by Te Papa Tongarewa in collaboration with Tāhuhu Kōrero Toi Art History at Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington and Te Pātaka Toi Adam Art Gallery. Our art histories in the Pacific are far too important to leave to art historians alone. Artists, activists, curators, communities and scholars across the Pacific are all engaged in making art histories that carry the weight and urgency of our current times.

    • Vaiei Tupuna
      • 4 October – 15 December 2024 Vaiei Tupuna is an exhibition of contemporary tapa from across Moana Nui that brings together newly commissioned responses to taonga from the collections of Ngā Puhipuhi o Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington Art Collection and The Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, alongside historic and contemporary artworks that acknowledge the tupuna and atua who activate this practice. Gifted by Sarah Vaki, elder and master tapa maker from Fatu Hiva in the Marquesas, the title of the exhibition translates as “heritage of our ancestors”. Vaiei Tupuna takes up these shared genealogies and histories of tapa to celebrate the vitality of the artform in the present, and to extend and build knowledge for the future. Hina, the atua of tapa makers, is present throughout Vaiei Tupuna.

    • Unpacking Our Ngatu
      • When thinking about how to contextualise the recent additions of Cora-Allan’s works on hiapo within our collection, curator Sophie Thorn couldn’t help but think about the giant roll of ngatu tāhina (decorated barkcloth) tucked away in the corridor of the gallery’s back of house stairwell. Out of the way but never quite out of sight, the thought of seeing the work in its entirety was tantalising. Her goal was to enable visitors to be able to walk the length of the ngatu; to take it all in, to be engulfed by it and understand the sheer scale of collaborative effort that has gone into the making of this piece. Our files on the piece lack detail and, without an exhibition of this kind, were likely to stay this way.

    • Lunchtime Readings
      • Every second Tuesday lunchtime, Christina Barton, Director of the Adam Art Gallery and co-curator of In Relation: Performance Works by Peter Roche & Linda Buis 1979–1985, will select a performance in the exhibition and read the relevant original notes drafted by the artists or compiled by their most assiduous audience member, the critic and curator Wystan Curnow. Her idea is to bring a live dimension into the gallery as a way of animating the documentation on display and sharing first-hand insights in their unedited form. Each reading will be between 10 and 20 minutes with time for questions after.
