Event listed by: MCH Admin
Pataka presents an exhibition of works by New Zealand artist Peter Adsett , on display from 28 November 2009 - 14 March 2010.
Peter Adsett has taken one of the most arresting events in Tairawhiti history and declined to talk about it. Instead, through his decades-long experimentation with abstraction, the Melbourne-based artist invites the viewer to "seek out the edges", to try to make their own sense out of the 1868 Matawhero 'Massacre'.
The Matawhero 'Massacre' refers to the 1868 incident when Maori prophet Te Kooti Arikirangi Te Turuki and his followers killed around 60 people -- roughly equal numbers of Maori and Pakeha. The attack was said to be vengeance (utu) for Te Kooti's treatment after his capture at Waerenga-a-hika three years earlier.
Peter Adsett has exhibited widely throughout Australia, Japan, the US and New Zealand. He has built a considerable career as an accomplished and distinctive abstract artist.
Come and hear Peter Adsett talk about his new exhibition being opened at 1pm, on 29 November at Pataka.
