Very few volumes of poetry published in New Zealand have sold as many copies as Hone Tuwhare's book. ‘No Ordinary Sun’, which was recently re-printed for the second time. The artist Selwyn Muru has painted two murals depicting Maori rock drawings for Wellington's Overseas Passenger Terminal. The artist Ralph Hotere, of Hokianga, recently returned to New Zealand after four years in Europe. Born in 1931 and educated at St Peter's College and Auckland University, Hotere was awarded a New Zealand Art Fellowship in 1961. While in London he had several successful exhibitions of his paintings, including one-man shows at well known galleries. A one-man show held in Auckland since his return has attracted much interest. Early this year an Auckland Maori Groups Association was formed with delegates from many of the numerous Maori clubs in the Auckland area. It aims at sponsoring goodwill and unity between clubs and pooling their mutual knowledge on matters of Maori culture. A reunion of the descendants of Patuone, the famous Ngapuhi chief who lived at Hokianga in the last century will be held early next year. More than 1000 descendants are expected to attend a gathering at Waitangi on February 26 and to assemble in Auckland later to make a pilgrimage to Patuone's grave at Devonport.
