Maori carving went through a rapid evolution from 1830 to 1930. Beginning around 1830, three dominant art traditions - war canoes, decorated storehouses and chiefly houses - declined and were replaced by whare karakia (churches), whare whakairo (decorated meeting houses) and wharekai (dining halls). In A Whakapapa of Tradition, Ngarino Ellis examines how and why that fundamental transformation took place by exploring the Iwirakau school of carving - an ancestor who lived in the Waiapu Valley around 1700, Iwirakau is credited for reinvigorating carving on the East Coast. The six major carvers of his school went on to create more than thirty important meeting houses and other structures, which Ngarino Ellis explores to tell this story of Ngati Porou carving and a profound transformation in Maori art. A Whakapapa of Tradition also attempts to make sense of Maori art history, exploring what makes a tradition in Maori art; how traditions begin and, conversely, how and why they cease. Beautifully illustrated with new photography by Natalie Robertson, and drawing on the work of key scholars to make a new synthetic whole, A Whakapapa of Tradition will be a landmark volume in the history of writing about Maori art.

Greenstone, or pounamu, has been prized by Maori for hundreds of years. The most precious tools, weapons and ornaments are made from this magnificent stone, treasured for its strength as well as its beauty. Pounamu is still valued today, and there is increasing interest not just in posessing objects that others have made, but in actually working the stone. The challenge of working in pounamu may be daunting but the rewards, both material and spiritual, are great. This book provides an introduction to the art of greenstone carving. It covers everything the novice carver needs to know, from what equipment is needed and how to obtain it, through safety, choosing stone, carving tecniques, and initial projects. The emphasis is on Maori designs; as well as instructions for carving, the uses and origins of the carved objects are also explained
