They may be small, they may be creepy, but bugs have super-sized powers!

Meet a roll call of some of New Zealand’s and the world’s most incredible bugs, from the cunning portia spider to the killer brain-surgeon wasp.

Illustrated with up-close, dramatic bug photography throughout, The Genius of Bugs is a fresh take on the world of bugs, filled with bug tales, facts and figures that showcase bug ingenuity and reveal astounding bug behaviour.

Biologist and award-winning author Simon Pollard draws on the latest research to reveal why, for example, the delicate dragonfly is four times better at catching prey than a lion, and how a beetle sets off an explosion in its bottom to defend itself.

Featuring New Zealand and international examples, children will be entranced by these inspiring bugs and remarkable recent discoveries about their genius.

An accessible, illustrated guide to the history, artistry and cultural significance of the whare whakairo or Māori meeting house.

This all-new introductory guide to the whare whakairo, or decorated Māori meeting house, covers every aspect of these magnificent taonga (treasures) – their history and evolution, structure and art forms, symbolism and cultural power.

Generously illustrated with over one hundred intriguing historical and contemporary photographs, and containing original watercolour illustrations and a helpful glossary, the book clearly illustrates the parts – and the arts – of the whare whakairo with reference to numerous houses from all over Aotearoa New Zealand and the world.

In an accessible and engaging text, Dr Damian Skinner brings together existing scholarship on whare whakairo with his own reflections as a Pākehā art historian and curator. He weaves in the voices of many carvers, artists, architects, writers, experts and iwi to give every reader new ways of seeing these taonga – whether it is their first visit or their hundredth.

‘A welcome addition to the growing body of literature on the modern meeting house as a statement of Māori identity, culture and mana.’ –RANGINUI WALKER

Damian Skinner is an art historian, writer and the 2017 JD Stout Fellow at Victoria University of Wellington. He is interested in art and craft in the twentieth century, and, in particular, the history of contact between Māori and Pākehā, and the relationship between art and politics in New Zealand.

A rich new history of life in postwar New Zealand, told through objects and images.

The decades of the 1950s and 1960s continue to exert a powerful fascination, from Mad Men to Crown Lynn collectibles. In New Zealand, these postwar years have been remembered in popular culture as a ‘golden age’ of God, Queen and Country, full employment, the baby boom, Sir Edmund Hillary, and ‘Ladies, a plate!’ – as well as the birth of the teenager and the seedbed of later change. But what was life really like?

Real Modern tells a vibrant and varied story of real life in this compelling era through images and, above all, objects. Readers will discover or rediscover the real things that New Zealanders acquired and desired, that they used at school, work or play, and that they wore and saw from the country to the suburbs to the city.

Through hundreds of stunning new photographs from Te Papa and collections nationwide, readers encounter not only much-loved vintage and retro memorabilia and mid-century design classics, but also ordinary, surprising and unique objects. Each is accompanied by lively, expert and informative text that links these pieces to the people who owned and used them, and to New Zealand’s wider social, political and cultural history.

‘This highly visual, stylish and thoroughly researched book examines post-war New Zealand through its objects […] It is not a history but an elegant, suave documentary full of glamorous nostalgia.’ –URBIS MAGAZINE

A unique visual history of photography in New Zealand – from 1840 to now.

The history of photography coincides with the history of New Zealand more closely than almost any other country in the world.

New Zealand Photography Collected illuminates this history, from the earliest nineteenth-century portraits of Māori and local ‘scenic views’ to the latest contemporary art photography. It features more than 350 photographs drawn from the national collection at Te Papa, beautifully reproduced and accompanied by richly informative descriptions.

What emerges is not only an illuminating new history of the photographic medium but also a surprising and powerful portrait of Aotearoa New Zealand – its landscapes, its people and its changing character as a nation.

A powerfully human and compelling illustrated history of New Zealand’s war experience.

The Great War touched every aspect of New Zealanders’ lives, from the front line to the family home.
