"The achievement of Toi Te Mana (which roughly translates as ‘arts of power’) is of another order altogether. Its subtitle points to its distinctiveness. This is both a work grounded in and animated by Māori concepts—of time, place, people and valuables—and the outcome of sophisticated art-historical research, which deftly mobilizes the discipline’s foundational methods and the feminist and postcolonial perspectives that have challenged the field. . . . Toi Te Mana is remarkable not only for its lucid broader history but also for fascinating detail regarding specific works, images, and histories, and even of quirks such as notable fakes."
