Galleries 101~102, Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts
The exhibition ‘Le Folauga’ which was held at the Auckland War Memorial Museum, New Zealand during March and April 2007, was a partnership between the Auckland War Memorial Museum and the Tautai Contemporary Pacific Arts Trust.
Curated by Tautai trustees Ms Fulimalo Pereira (Curator, Pacific, Auckland Museum) and Mr Ron Brownson (Senior Curator, New Zealand and Pacific, Auckland Art Gallery), Le Folauga features a representative sample of the best artwork being created in New Zealand by Pacific artists. The participating artists who are showing work in a wide variety of media are among the leading contemporary visual artists in New Zealand. As part of the long term “Contemporary Austronesian Art Project’ which has been organised and implemented by the Museum since 2006, this exhibition has been reconfigured to be shown at the museum in an attempt to inspire the audience and artists of Taiwan and to promote dialogue and exchanges in Austronesian societies of the Pacific region.
