Representations of tūpuna, ancestors, hold profound significance in te ao Māori, the Māori world. They embody customary cultural values including mana, tapu and mauri (prestige, sacredness and life force) and hold the ancestral ties of whakapapa. For centuries, representations of tūpuna were given form through whakairo (carving). The mediums of painting and photography were adopted from the mid-19th century for this purpose, with these new forms of portraiture congregating among or standing in place of whakairo in whare tūpuna (ancestral meeting houses) and their modern equivalents. Ngā Taonga Tūturu: Treasured Māori Portraits brings together whakairo and oil paintings from the collection of Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, offering insights into the significance of tūpuna representations within te ao Māori. ‘Ngā taonga’ means many treasures while ‘tūturu’ signifies something permanent, true and original. This exhibition considers the inherent cultural values embodied and expressed within and through these taonga from a te ao Māori view. One of the most prolific portraitists of the late 19th and early 20th-century, Gottfried Lindauer’s paintings acknowledge the mana and self-determination of tūpuna through his respectful evocation of their likeness. They were widely commissioned by Māori and Pākehā (European New Zealander) alike. The portraits in this exhibition radiate outwards from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, representing iwi (tribe) and hapū (subtribe) from throughout the motu (island). Recalling a whare tupuna, the gallery resonates with the mauri of these tūpuna.

The Robertson Gift: Paths through Modernity celebrates the monumental gift of significant artworks from the collection of New York philanthropists Julian (1932–2022) and Josie Robertson (1943–2010) to the Gallery. The donation comprises 15 works by influential modern European artists, including Pierre Bonnard, Georges Braque, Paul Cezanne, Salvador Dalí, André Derain, Henri Fantin-Latour, Paul Gauguin, Fernand Léger, Henri Matisse, Piet Mondrian and Pablo Picasso. Beginning with the suggestive nude bodies of the late 19th century and ending with a monumental colour-field painting from the 1960s, The Robertson Gift: Paths through Modernity takes visitors on a journey through the major art movements of the modern era, including Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Fauvism, Cubism, Surrealism, and post-war abstraction. Featuring 49 paintings, prints, drawings and sculpture, the exhibition also includes visitor favourites from the permanent collection as well as loans and other important recent acquisitions, offering a broad survey of the best of late-19th- and early-to-mid 20th-century international art.

Across a career spanning more than 50 years Mark Adams (born 1949) has photographed Aotearoa New Zealand – its land, peoples and its complex, multilayered histories. His practice documents sites of significance across the country, including places where Captain James Cook and his crew came ashore on their visits in 1769 and the 1770s, and locations where Te Tiriti o Waitangi was signed in 1840. Over the decades, Adams has sustained a deep and ongoing engagement with subjects of interest. He has photographed whakairo Māori (Māori carving) both here and overseas and the work of celebrated tufuga tatatau, master tattoo artists, in Samoan communities in Tāmaki Makaurau for over 30 years. With Aotearoa as his tūrangawaewae (standing place), his images explore the migration of artistic and cultural practices across the globe and examine the role of museums and photography in this dynamic and ongoing cross-cultural exchange.

Jenny Holzer’s text works, called Truisms, were first executed as pithy and sometimes provocative slogans on the streets of New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s as stickers, t-shirts and posters, with the intention of taking art out of the museum and into public life. Holzer quickly converted these statements to the media of advertising and public communication with a series of pivotal LED signs, most famously in New York’s Times Square. Holzer’s use of electronic technology is, she says, motivated by ‘needing to be where people look’. Hanging suspended from the ceiling of the Gallery’s South Atrium, in STATEMENT – Truisms +, 2015 iconic statements like ‘ABUSE OF POWER COMES AS NO SURPRISE’ and ‘ENSURE THAT YOUR LIFE STAYS IN FLUX’ cascade and flash in speech-like pulsating rhythms and rainbow spectrums of colour, seemingly with a life of their own.

Taimoana | Coastlines explores the art of Aotearoa New Zealand, locating it within Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa, the wider Pacific region. Taking the concept of the coast, or shoreline, as a starting point, the exhibition navigates a sea of ideas, offering multiple perspectives on New Zealand art through a selection of works from the collection of Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. The coast is central to the way of life of many in Aotearoa New Zealand and it has been throughout our entire history. Integral to te ao Māori, the Māori world, the interconnectedness of land and sea is reflected in cultural narratives and practices. The coast is at times a source of sustenance and employment, at others a route for travel, a space of recreation, conflict, well-being or inspiration, but also, as the climate continues to change, at the frontline of danger. The coast is a threshold, an in-between zone, a perpetually shifting meeting point of land and sea that prompts us to examine our relationships with both. In this exhibition, artists from the 18th century to today ride the oceans’ currents, traversing themes from the enormity of the Pacific to the vessels that have crossed its expanse and plied Aotearoa’s coasts, and exploring their personal responses to the shore as well as the legacies of colonial encounters and conflict.

Across a career spanning more than 50 years, photographer Mark Adams has focused his lens on Aotearoa New Zealand, exploring its land, peoples and its complex, multilayered histories. A retrospective of his practice – Mark Adams: A Survey | He Kohinga Whakaahua – is currently on display on Level 2 of the Gallery. This display brings together material from the Real Pictures Archive to highlight two significant bodies of Adams’ work. One is the series of photographs created in Rotorua at the invitation of then director of the Rotorua Art Gallery, John Perry. Produced from 1978 to 1986, the 60 photographs were exhibited in Pakeha • Maori — A Conjuncture / Maori • Pakeha — He Waerenga Ururoa in Rotorua in 1986 and at Auckland’s Real Pictures Gallery in 1987. As Adams recalls, the works are ‘a subjective response to the region … [and] the conjuncture formed of the cultures inhabiting it’. The second series highlighted is Adams’ documentation of Samoan tatau (tattoo) in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. In 1978, through a commission from Craft Australia magazine, Adams was introduced to Auckland tufuga tatatau (expert tattooists) including Su‘a Suluape Paulo II. The portraits of tatau he took over the following years were exhibited at Real Pictures Gallery in the 1982 exhibition O Le Tā Tatau, Samoan Tattooing. Thirty years later, Adams continues to be welcomed into homes to photograph the process of receiving the pe’a (men’s waist-to-knee tattoo). These two exhibitions highlight Adams’ enduring interest in cross-cultural exchanges and the strong relationships formed through his practice, which have allowed him to witness these intimate ceremonies and places of cultural significance. The photographs were taken on a large format camera, seen here in a photograph by Haru Sameshima, which Adams continues to use.

Safety in Numbers: Colin McCahon’s Dark Equations draws from Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki’s extensive holdings to explore a selection of the artist’s mysterious number paintings made between 1975 and 1976. Numbers first surfaced in McCahon’s work in the late 1950s and would become the primary subject of his art by the mid-1970s in the Teaching aids, Clouds, Noughts and crosses, and Rocks in the sky series. Within these works, Arabic and Roman numerals hover in darkness, appear at once tabulated and like geological strata, or recall complex mathematical equations on a school blackboard. The number paintings also refer to The Stations of the Cross, and communicate themes of life and death, as well as redemption and salvation. Safety in Numbers presents a puzzling yet visually unified chapter of the artist’s practice. While the stark block printing may appear straightforward, the works provide a profound reflection on art’s ability to communicate existential concerns, drawing viewers into a dialogue with McCahon’s coded symbolism. Beyond this, the exhibition also prompts a questioning of art’s role as a space for teaching and learning, and the challenges that come with interpretation.

The first intangible cultural heritage-level thangka art exhibition held in the southern hemisphere, many works are worth a lot of money, and the ultimate craftsmanship and spiritual world of Himalayan art and culture are displayed on site. This is a rare opportunity, and friends from all walks of life are welcome to come and appreciate and support, and pass on this cultural treasure that spans thousands of years.
