Māori Art Market is biennial Toi Māori event features art exhibitions, art sales, live art demonstrations, such as wood carving and tattooing, as well as presentations and master classes. It features traditional and contemporary Māori art by Māori artists. It was inspired by the Santa Fe Indian Market. The genesis of the Market was Darcy Nicholas's Fulbright Studies in 1984, which proposed the idea to Ihakara Puketapu, Professor Ngatata Love of the Department of Maori Affairs and Glen Wiggs of the New Zealand Crafts Council. This led to the Roi Toia and June Grant working with Nigel Reading of the Spirit Wrestler Gallery in Vancouver. The markets are also linked to the 2010 World Art Market (WAM!) project held in Canada. The events are managed by Toi Māori Aotearoa, a government funded charitable trust for the promotion of Māori arts. More information...
