ATE Journal of Māori Art is an annual, peer-reviewed journal with an explicit focus on Māori art, artists and art movements. ATE is co-edited by Matariki Williams and Bridget Reweti with support from the editorial board Professor Robert Jahnke, Sean Mallon and Professor Huhana Smith.

Volume One was developed during a wānanga held with writers, Chloe Cull, Cassandra Barnett, Tryphena Cracknell, Janneen Love, and the editorial board, Professor Robert Jahnke, Sean Mallon and Professor Huhana Smith.

Articles in Volume One reflect the breadth and beauty of ngā toi Māori including Cath Brown, Rachel Shearer, wāhine mau whao, Sandy Adsett, Jeremy Leatinu’u, Kereama Taepa, Nathan Pohio and Brett Graham. We are also pleased to include a republished text from the rangatira of te ao toi Māori, Jonathan Mane-Wheoki, with thanks to Art New Zealand and Jonathan’s partner Paul Bushnell.
