(G 1974, 30 mins)

A 1974 documentary exploring the work of Ralph Hotere, now arguably New Zealand's greatest living artist. Directed by Sam Pillsbury, the film is framed around the execution of a large mural Hotere was commissioned to paint for the Founders Theatre in Hamilton. Interviews with friends and associates: poets Hone Tuwhare and Bill Manhire, art critics, officials and dealers (Gordon Brown, Barry Lett, Rodney Kirk Smith, John Scott) are intercut with fascinating shots of Hotere working, including making art by photocopying (then called 'xerography').
