Description

All Our Own Work : New Zealand's Folk Art by Richard Wolfe. Photography by Mark Adams and Haru Sameshima. 'In this beautifully illustrated book, Richard Wolfe explores New Zealand's folk heritage in all its diversity and splendour. Beginning with the heritage of New Zealand's Polynesian and European founding cultures, All Our Own Work traces the influences on our folk art of the New Zealand landscape, our natural history, agriculture, the sea, shipping, wartime and the Pacific Photographs accompanying the text illustrate intriguing examples of each type. Generally distinguished by originality and colour, folk art is a form that has no need of formal training and finds joy in the creation and embellishment of everyday objects.'
