Edward Bullmore
"Edward Bullmore's story is relatively unknown. As a young emerging artist in the late 1950's he left New Zealand to widen his artistic horizons in Western Europe. After a decade of success in London, Bullmore returned to New Zealand taking up a teaching position at Rotorua Boys' High School. For various reasons his story has not been told up until now. A gift of 297 works to the Tauranga Art Gallery Toi Tauranga in 2006 by his widow Jacqueline Bullmore came with just one condition, to tell Bullmore's story. This exhibition and publication is the story of a New Zealand Surrealist and the artistic journey he took."--Inside front cover.

Toi Mauri
"This will be Tauranga-based, contemporary Maori artist, Todd Couper's first survey exhibition. It charts his impressive career over the past 15 years and includes works, not often viewed in public, sourced from private collections in New Zealand and overseas. Called Toi Mauri, which references the essence or spirit held within each individual artwork, this exhibition features a large selection of beautifully intricate whakairo rakau (wood carving), alongside cast bronze and drawing. Couper's subjects include kaitiaki (guardian spirits) from the natural world such as the hokioi (eagle), ruru (morepork) and whai (stingray) as well as other traditional forms. For Tauranga Art Gallery, Couper has also created a series of new works based on the purerehua form - a traditional Maori instrument."--Tauranga Art Gallery website.
The People's Gallery
"The People's Gallery - Toi ka rere is Tauranga's own community gallery. A regional not-for-profit gallery for community groups and individuals showcasing the creative diversity of Tauranga Moana. The brain child of the Incubator Creative Hub, the People's Gallery is entirely volunteer driven and backed by expert mentors from The Incubator Creative Hub team"--A gallery for the people : toi ka rere - let the arts fly, page 7.
Kermadec
"The Kermadec region as seen through the eyes of art, science and conservation"--Publisher information. The remote Kermadec Islands lie in the heart of one of the world's great ocean wilderness areas. The 620,000-square kilometre Kermadec region, located between New Zealand and Tonga, is home to whales and turtles, sharks, seabirds, fish, and deep-sea marine life. It also contains underwater volcanoes and a deep-sea trench, making the islands a hotspot for some of the most geologically active and biologically unusual features on the planet. With so many environmental riches, the Kermadecs are an area worthy of our protective stewardship. In May 2011, the Pew Environment Group's Global Ocean Legacy campaign organized an artists' voyage to the Kermadecs. Partnering with the Royal New Zealand Navy and New Zealand Department of Conservation, Pew provided an opportunity for nine artists to experience the vast Kermadec region. This catalogue records this voyage of artists and the works they produced. At the core of this project is the artists' desire to articulate the issues that face the Kermadecs and the urgent need to safeguard the Earth's marine environment.
