Toi Maori Aotearoa是毛利現代藝術的第一把交椅,提供獨特、優質與具有文化表現性的毛利藝術。Toi Maori每年都會舉辦大量而廣泛的活動與表演,以各種毛利藝術的形式呈現,諸如節慶、展覽、表演、出版品和研討會等等。這些活動是由十個國家藝術委員會所共同籌畫達成目標。
Toi Maori活動的重點是將所有藝術形式集中到Toi Maori藝術節裡。這個藝術節每兩年舉辦一次,是紐西蘭國際藝術季的一部分,每次輪流在國內不同的地區舉行。Toi Maori也籌畫與其他國際性的原住民藝術家進行交流,包括太平洋地區、歐洲、加拿大、美國、澳洲和亞洲等地。
Toi Maori Aotearoa aspires to be the organisation of first choice for all matters relating to contemporary Maori art. We promote the uniqueness, quality and cultural expression of Maori art. Toi Maori annually produces a wide range of Events and activities that include festivals, exhibitions, performances, publications, and workshops that relate to a wide spectrum of Maori artforms. These events and activities are developed by the ten National Artform Committees to achieve the strategic goals.
The highlight of Toi Maori''s activities is the bringing together of all of these artforms in the Toi Maori Festival. This festival is held biennially as a part of the NZ International Arts Festival (Wellington, 2004 and 2006) and in alternate years in different regions around the country (Christchurch, 2003 and Hastings, 2005). Toi Maori also organises international exchange with other indigenous peoples, including artists from the Pacific, Europe, Canada, the USA, Australia and Asia. |
