Since Maori first painted moa and mythical birds on cave walls, artists in Aotearoa New Zealand have provided an imaginative, lively account of the lives we've been leading, the dreams we've been dreaming and the stories we've been telling. Alongside works painted during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this new book features art by a number of contemporary painters and printmakers, all of them seasoned travellers across time and space. Moa, angels, rugby players, insects and aunts, saws and mountains, the bush and the beaches all play starring roles in this bird's-eye view of New Zealand painting. A follow-up to the hugely successful and prize-winning Welcome to the South Seas: Contemporary New Zealand Art for Young People, Back and Beyond offers more than forty full-colour plates that will dazzle and entrance the young and the curious and bring new life to the history of this country.
