Aloha mai! Join us virtually at the 2022 Hawaii Book and Music Festival, October 17, 2022 at 6 pm. We are excited to have Kamehameha Publishing’s Meredith Enos discuss one of our latest projects, Likoliko No‘eau: A Flourishing Tradition of Contemporary Hawaiian Art, with project curator and artist Meleanna Aluli Meyer and special guest panelists artist Al Lagunero and educator/researcher Noelle Kahanu.
One of the most compelling ways to bring Hawaiian worldviews and values into a space is through the art spotlighted on its walls. Likoliko Noʻeau features the work of nine established Kanaka Maoli artists in a first-of-its-kind art print collection. The collection’s images capture the beauty and complexity of the modern Hawaiian experience. Biographical information for each artist is also shared, along with insights into their background, purpose, and process.
The artfolio is designed to make Native Hawaiian art more accessible to a wider audience in settings such as schools, homes, community centers, and places of work. This collection highlights work by Solomon Robert Nui Enos, Roen Hufford, Imaikalani Kalahele, Al Lagunero, Marie McDonald, Meleanna Aluli Meyer, Harinani Kalohelani Orme, Carl Franklin Kaʻailāʻau Pao, and Abigail Romanchak.
