Beyond Multicultural Art Education
Multiculturalism is a term that has been much used in educational texts in recent years. Its usage is frequently taken for granted in the rhetoric of curriculum literature.

Contributing art specialists ensured that aspects of Māori art such as kōwhaiwhai, kapa haka and waiata had a central place in our mainstream classrooms through in-depth consultation with Ngāti Porou kaumātua Pine Taiapa.

This book offers an important contribution both to Maori history and to the history of the indigenous peoples.
