Winston Peters wants to be Pacific’s Trump whisperer | PINA New Zealand is courting the United States to return as a major donor and diplomatic powerhouse in the Pacific after years of disinterest in the region from American administrations.

I know more about the President and Secretary and less about Mr. Peters or his abilities.

My question, though, is, does the Pacific need a whisperer...

Or a louder voice in DC? 🌏

A book entitled "Paintings in Proust", by Eric Karpeles. Cover art shows a  detail image from a 19th century painting with a lady seated lady at a table. She is dressed in black, wearing a big black hat, arms resting on the table. Her head is turned our way and she is smiling.

A book cover with the title "Harlem Renaissance: Art of Black America". Cover art has a bright yellow-green background and shows a black man with gray hair seated backward on a wooden chair. He is in three-quarter profile with arms folded and resting on the chair, which is bright red. He's wearing a black vest and pants, a white shirt and a dark tie. He is looking slightly to the side, and appears to be in thought.

A book entitled "Polynesian Tattooing", by Alan Taylor. Cover shows a 19th century color image of a balding Maori man with extensive symmetrical blue face tattoos on his chin, nose, temples and around his eyes. He is seen in partial profile, looking ahead. He is also wearing long earrings from his pierced earlobes, and a necklace with a pendant carved stone which is decorated with a face.

A book entitled "Ascending Chaos: The Art of Masami Teraoka 1966-2006". The cover art shows a rather nightmarish scene - four suitably chaotic figures (two male, two female), plus a baby, and an orange-spotted octopus. They are all in a swirl in close proximity, and apparently underwater. One female has an old-fashioned, golden plate-style halo, the other, who may be a ghost, appears benevolent but has two bolts of fire shooting from her head. One of the men is swimming, with his long black hair streaming behind him. The other man is lying down and may be deceased. The baby is partially hidden, and appears to be held gently by the ghost-woman.

‘The original art galleries’: protecting New Zealand’s hidden Māori rock art Few know of the drawings scattered across Aotearoa, some of them dating from first arrival of humans, but iwi and scientists are working to change that

Maori rock art. One of the ingredients to make the paint is said to be shark liver oil. Oral tradition recorded early nineteen hundreds.
