Kanaka maoli artists explore the convergence of art, teaching and learning in Hawaii, as well as the world, in \u201cMAP (Maoli, Art, & Pedagogy),\u201d an exhibition from Sept. 30 to Nov. 16 at Hawaii Pacific University\u2019s art gallery in Kaneohe.<\/p>\n

The artwork attempts to define the role of the maoli artist in the day and age of pop-culture saturation and \u201ccookie-cutter aesthetics.\u201d They treat the piko, heiau, the human body and ki\u2018i as powerful symbolic sites of engagement that inter- sect with institutional and commercial culture.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the exhibition is indicative of HPU\u2019s deep engagement and philosophical commitment to the socio-cultural fabric of Oceania and Hawaii,\u201d said Pete Britos, HPU professor and director of media arts who is part of the show.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cHawaiian art is a foundational pillar for our communities, and needs to be better addressed by our K-12 and university educational institutions,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cHPU is doing that in a focused way with this inaugural exhibition and other symposiums like our Native Hawaiian Speaker Series.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also featured are Carl F.K. Pao, Meleanna Meyer, Al Lagunero, Harnani Orme and Kahi Ching, working in mediums of film and television, paper, canvas, oil acrylic, murals, illustration, bonsai, rock, wood, photography and more.<\/p>\n
