Description

Frames one and two show three men standing in front of the meeting house Te Upoko o te ika a Maui at the Pipitea Marae. The man in the centre has been identified as Sir Ralph Love, with Cliff Whiting on the right. A Māori woman, smoking a cigarette, is sitting at a table with a large bundle of posters, and some t'shirts with the logo "Art of the Māori" (frame 3). Frames 5 to 12 show a pākehā woman looking over the shoulders of small children including one Māori boy named Hemi, and a pākehā boy named Nathan. They are looking at a carving which is in progress on a flat table surface, and part of a large modern Māori painting is seen on the wall behind them, probably by Buck Nin. Unless otherwise stated, all persons are unidentified. Photographs taken by Ans Westra.
