Toi Te Mana: an Indigenous History of Māori Art is a landmark account in words and pictures of Māori art by Māori art historians Professor Deidre Brown (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Kahu) and Associate Professor Ngarino Ellis (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Porou), with the late Jonathan Mane-Wheoki (Ngāpuhi, Te Aupōuri, Ngāti Kurī). 

Published last month, the authors explore a wide field of art practice from the arrival of Pacific voyagers 800 years ago to contemporary artists in Aotearoa and around the world today.
