Te Whare Maire o Nga Punawerewere: 10-29 July 2023

posted in: Eastside Gallery, Past | 0

This group show is a celebration of the mahi of 14 local Māori artists making Māori art. The show has been run in Eastside Gallery annually for over 20 years and takes place across Matariki.

The name literally refers to young spiders leaving the web and metaphorically refers to the way newer artists are nurtured in their developing art practice by those who are more experienced. In this way, it’s a branching dome of support like a spider’s web. This show, therefore, includes the mahi of both new and senior artists.

Opening Event: 5.30-7pm Monday 10 July

Alter: Waipuna 19 June – 8 July 2023

posted in: Eastside Gallery, Past | 0

Alter is an exhibition of art by young men who have experienced adversity through their lives and are receiving support through Waipuna and Tūmanako Trust. The name Alter represents the small but significant steps these young men take every day to heal and change the trajectory of their lives. Abstract art is a safe space to let go of control, it allows these young men to explore the idea of play, have experiences some missed out on as children, and start a process of healing.
