Introduction: The cultures of display -- Colonialism's culture, 1865-1913 -- Our nation's story, 1914-42 -- Art apart, 1949-79 -- Emblems of identity, 1980-90 -- Mana taonga, 1991-2001 -- Conclusion: The subaltern speaks.

Summary: This richly illustrated book presents a comprehensive assessment of the display of Māori culture from the nineteenth century to today. In doing so, Exhibiting Māori traces the long journey from curio to specimen, artefact, art and taonga (treasure). Drawing on extensive and groundbreaking research, Exhibiting Māori reveals for the first time the remarkable story of Māori resistance to, involvement in, and eventual capture of the display of their culture. Ranging across museums, world fairs, fine art and tourism, Exhibiting Māori fuses museum studies, anthropology, and visual and material culture to uncover a history of active Māori engagement with the colonial culture of display.
