The role and relevancy of museums in the 21st century. A lecture by Maia Nuku *IN PERSON*
The role and relevancy of museums in the 21st century. A lecture by Maia Nuku *IN PERSON*
Starts: 6:30 pm
Ends: 4/12/2025 - 8:00 pm
Location: Te Papa, Wellington, New Zealand
Description: Join us to hear Dr Maia Nuku (Ngāi Tai) deliver the annual Gordon H Brown Lecture, hosted in collaboration with Victoria University and the Adam Art Gallery. Nuku is the Evelyn A. J. Hall and John A. Friede Curator for Oceanic Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. What is the role and relevancy of museums in the 21st century? Are they living, expansive archives of Indigenous knowledge? Or outdated relics of colonial pasts. The complete overhaul and construction of new galleries for the Arts of Oceania at The Metropolitan Museum in New York gave curator Maia Nuku a unique opportunity to reframe the galleries conceptually; to emphasize connectivity in the context of global and local histories; and elevate the equally critical arts of storytelling, oratory, and performance alongside Oceania’s dynamic visual arts. Curator Maia Nuku shares insights into the 10-year project that has culminated in a suite of galleries that offer international visitors perspectives on art that reach deep into Oceania’s past while also acknowledging ongoing manifestations of its agency in the present.
