Louise Bourgeois: In Private View is a new exhibition currently on view at The Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. Louise Bourgeois born in 1911, was a French-American artist with a career spanning seven decades of her life, one of the great figures within modern art. She was best known for her large-scale sculptural work and installations, but also had a practice within drawing, painting, prints and fabric work. Bourgeois work often dealt with these psychologically charged themes of memory, family, the body and the subconscious—commonly drawing from her own personal memories and childhood.
Louise Bourgeois: In Private View, showcases work from a never publicly exhibited before private collection. This intimate collection showcases works that span over six decades of her career. From early paintings, to a closer look at her iconic spider series, her sculpture of hanging spiraled entangled limbs, The couple, to later fabric work made in the final years of her life. A beautiful and intimate showcase of Louise Bourgeois work through time.
Maya caught up with senior curator of global contemporary art at The Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Natasha Conland about the show.
Rosetta is driving today! She plays some of her current faves, new and old. She also has a catch up with Nabihah Iqbal before her show at Neck of The Woods tonight, and chats with Chelsea from Skilaa about what the group has been up to. Thanks for tuning in!
Minimal shit talk from Mookie, Buzzy and Benny as they fumble around with seven inches all night, nothing particularly new, mostly old shit, but fuck me if the Cry Now, Cry Later comps don't go hard as eh. Remember when black metal bands insulted each other in their liner notes? We sure do.

Maori students and staff of the University of Waikato flocked to the Office of the Vice-Chancellor Neil Quigley in their dozens on Tuesday, to protest the restructuring of New Zealand’s first independent school for Maori studies. The remodelling comes only 18 months after the faculty became independent. Both Maori students and their supporters gathered to sing waiata and protest peacefully, presenting their case to the Vice Chancellor with “aroha” and a Mana Maori that they hope will show they want to come to a resolution without any conflict. Truly Harding, a student at the University, spoke to reporter Tuwhenuaroa Natanahira today about what the restructuring means for those students taking Maori and Indigenous studies, and why the issue is so important for Modern Maori to get involved with.
