The award winning and internationally acclaimed Maori artist, Shane Cotton, opens a new show in Tamaki Makaurau this weekend. His new paintings are billed as a "collision of Indigenous and European time systems through the lens of his Ngāpuhi whakapapa."
Over the past 50 years Professor Ngāhuia te Awekōtuku has been one of the most influential Maori academics and writers. In 1981 she became the first Maori woman to receive a PHD from a New Zealand University and was at the vanguard of women's and gay liberation movements dating back to the 1970s.
Portia Woodman-Wickliffe conquered every summit in rugby union with Olympic gold medals and World Cups in her trophy cabinet. She traces her life from Kaikohe to globetrotting rugby star. Her parents' advice was 'just run like hell.' It worked as she scored more than 250 tries for New Zealand.

The award winning architect Professor Anthony Hoete has written a chapter in a new book, Urban Aotearoa, The Future of Our Cities, and recently the Royal Society Te Aparangi made Professor Hoete a fellow for his advancement of New Zealand and Maori architecture worldwide.
