Tell me, since this is a museum exhibition, is there an art historical, anthropological, archaeological or otherwise academic slant to the exhibition/catalogue? Or is it based primarily on matters of contemporary style/commercial adaptations? I'm interested in how the subject of tiki is handled in museum exhibitions. No, it's all kind of tiki art, we arranged to have collections from Oceanic museum and private collection and we're mixing it with new tiki art and 50's, 60's as well. It's all the evolution of tiki art in 1 exhibition.
