Tradition and change in Māori and Pacific art : essays

Roger Neich (Author), Chanel Clarke (Editor), Pandora Fulimalo Pereira (Editor), Nigel Prickett (Editor), Auckland War Memorial Museum (Issuing body)
This collection of eighteen essays span Roger Neich's career - from a 1971 article on a Bougainville ancient stone bird carving to a 2005 study on the powaka whakairo form of Maori treasure box. At the heart of the collection stand his studies of Maori art, focusing on wood-carving and figurative painting. This book acknowledges the contribution Roger Neich made, not only to research and scholarship but to the way the public came to see Māori and Pacific art in new ways.--From book flap
