Mark Adams: A Survey -- He Kohinga Whakaahu

By Sarah Farrar PhD

Mark Adams is one of Aotearoa New Zealand's foremost photographers. His focus on Samoan tatau, Maori-Pakeha interactions in Rotorua, carved meeting houses, locations of significance for Ngai Tahu in Te Waipounamu, and Captain James Cook's landing sites reflect his deep engagement with our postcolonial and Pacific histories.

This first-ever comprehensive survey of his work honours one of our most distinguished -- and continually compelling -- photographers. It includes photographs taken across the Pacific, the United Kingdom and Europe that explore the migration of artistic and cultural practices across the globe, and examine the role of museums, and photography itself, in this dynamic and ongoing cross-cultural exchange.
