A new work of writing and images from Ruby Solly (Kai Tahu, Kāti
Māmoe, Waitaha) is now up on our website. In this work Ruby reflects
on creativity, the myriad forms of expression that she has developed,
and how they feed each other. We get to see some of Ruby's early
works, and alternative versions of illustrations already published.
Ruby also talks about her work towards a major new collection (Pū)oro
- an exhibition of this collection of 248 pūtangitangi, prints, and a
book full of knowledge is being held at Urban Dream Brokerage at 113
Tory Street, from the 15th to the 17th of November. All proceeds from
this exhibition will go towards an invaluable resource that Ruby is
developing, converting her PhD thesis on the use of taonga pūoro in
hauora, into a useable book for her people. Read the article, go to
her website, check out the exhibition, and support this incredibly
vital work.

Toss Woollaston: Figures from Life
Opens Thursday 21 November

From the early 1930s Toss Woollaston’s approach to portrait painting was radical, resulting in what Jill Trevelyan calls “New Zealand’s first modernist portrait”, Figures from Life, 1936. His portraiture was unlike anything produced in the country to this time.

M T Woollaston, Figures from Life, 1936. Oil and charcoal (627 x 478 mm). Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, gift of Colin McCahon, 1954
