Abstract
What can it mean to engage in public art performance practices that explore acts of kindness through the Māori concept of manaakitanga? Selected art practices of Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland artists Layne Waerea (2021), Jeremy Leatinu'u (2021), Rebecca Ann Hobbs (2018) and Mark Harvey (2021) are reflected on here in relation to a perspective of manaakitanga. The contexts for these artworks are public spaces that continue to be subject to the dynamics of colonisation and perspectives of neoliberalism by the government and local municipalities (Bargh & Otter, 2009). To build on other discussions around kindness, this article weaves a discussion between perspectives on the conditions of possibility in these art-based performance practices in manaakitanga, concerning their potential for resisting colonisation and neoliberalism through alternative Māori economies.
期刊介绍：
Knowledge Cultures is a multidisciplinary journal that draws on the humanities and social sciences at the intersections of economics, philosophy, library science, international law, politics, cultural studies, literary studies, new technology studies, history, and education. The journal serves as a hothouse for research with a specific focus on how knowledge futures will help to define the shape of higher education in the twenty-first century. In particular, the journal is interested in general theoretical problems concerning information and knowledge production and exchange, including the globalization of higher education, the knowledge economy, the interface between publishing and academia, and the development of the intellectual commons with an accent on digital sustainability, commons-based production and exchange of information and culture, the development of learning and knowledge networks and emerging concepts of freedom, access and justice in the organization of knowledge production.
