The notion of tuku iho - taonga passed down through the generations - is central to the rationale or kaupapa of the School of Maori Visual Arts at Massey University. It is an expansive concept, which embraces the innovations afforded by changing times and technology. As Maori in the east of the north island in the second half of the 19th century, responded to the range of paints brought by the settlers and developed a new style of figurative painting for their meeting houses, so today young Maori artists who have chosen to study Maori visual arts look for new ways of expressing timeless ideas and values. Tradition and innovation are thus at the heart of this exhibition.
