Tautai Gallery Official Opening
Karangahape Road welcomes a new gallery space championing Pacific creativity.
Overview
The Tautai Contemporary Pacific Arts Trust is a charitable trust dedicated to championing Pacific arts and artists. This month Tautai is opening its own dedicated gallery space on Karangahape Road. The new headquarters is home to a beautiful expanded space of over 500 square metres. Tautai's Director Courtney Sina Meredith says the extra space will enable Tautai to expand on its current programmes and activities from a central location.
Its first exhibition, Moana Legacy, which was curated by Cora-Allan Wickliffe and developed from an existing partnership with Melbourne's Blak Dot Gallery, takes a look at the idea of legacy and what it means to be an artist of the Pacific through photography, installation, video, sculpture, hiapo and painting.
It features artists Ahsin Ahsin, Cora-Allan Wickliffe and Kelly Lafaiki, Gina Ropiha, Israel Randell, Mereani Qalovakawasa, Naawie Tutugoro, Rangituhia Hollis and Talia Smith. Moana Legacy runs from 6 July – 18 September, 2020.
The official opening will kick off on 3 July from 4.30pm, with formalities beginning at 5pm.
