Description: Interview with New Zealand artist and former director of the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts, Guy Ngan, conducted from July - August 2011. 'Guy Ngan was born in Wellington in 1926, the son of a Chinese New Zealand businessman and his second wife who herself became a successful businesswoman and family matriarch. Guy was taken back to China as a 2 year old and would likely have stayed in the Guangzhou area there had it not been for the Japanese invasion in 1938. When Guangzhou was bombed Guy's father made hasty arrangements for Guy and his elder brother Albert to leave. The two boys travelled unaccompanied to New Zealand by ship. They lived initially in Newtown but Guy, unhappy at Newtown School, quickly struck out on his own arranging to stay with relatives in Miramar. This was the beginning of an independent way of life and thinking that Guy has continued to pursue.' (information provided by interviewer). The interview discusses his early life, education, experiences abroad, and his art career in New Zealand.

Date: 2012

From: Hubbard, James, 1949-: Digital caricatures and cartoons

By: Setford News Photo Agency

Reference: DCDL-0021461

Shearer's reaction is 'Aw geez..I want to rip out your brain!... In 2008, when Jones was Minister of Immigration, he approved the citizenship application of Chinese businessman William Yan who was later charged with making false declarations. On 23 May 2012, Jones stood down from his shadow portfolios while an investigation took place. Shearer asked the Auditor-General to investigate Jones' acting against advice to decline the application because of Yan's multiple identities and a warrant for his arrest in China. Jones claimed his decision was based on humanitarian grounds because a Government official had told him that Yan faced execution if he returned to China. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Brockie, Robert Ellison, 1932- :"Right-wing resistance rules! Ok!" 13 May 2011

Date: 2011

From: Brockie, Robert Ellison, 1932- :Digital caricatures and cartoons

By: National Business Review (Newspaper)

Reference: DCDL-0017799

Description: In the left frame a new-right skin-head wearing a shirt emblazoned with a swastika and printed with the letters 'NF' (National Front) carries a flag bearing the words 'Fight Asian invasion!' He growls 'Right-wing resistance rules! OK!' In the second frame he is shown as a tiny insignificant man who is about to be crushed like an insect beneath the boot of 'China'. Context - 'A Right-Wing Resistance group has been circulating anti-Asian fliers throughout Christchurch and is causing anger within the community. We've had in past election years quite a campaign against Asians and given the arrival of Asians, particularly Chinese and Massey University sociologist Paul Spoonley thinks its a publicity stunt attempting to guage the amount of interest in the formation of an anti-Asian Party. (3 News 12 May 2011) The cartoon suggests that China is so enormous and developing so rapidly that any protest by these people is really pretty pointless and rather pathetic. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
