Join Eva Forster-Garbutt from Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga as she discusses the role of New Zealand Art Schools in the late 19th and early 20th century in the creation of decorative art works, such as wallpaper and linoleum patterns, by its students and their display within art society, regional, and national exhibitions. These exhibitions were pivotal in disseminating the notion of good taste in the decoration of New Zealand interiors.
