Picturing Protest : New Zealand artists and the springbok rugby tour protests

Abstract

In this article Rankin aims to uncover "the way in which a culture of protest in the context of the anti-tour campaigns intersected with the work of New Zealand artists and designers". To this end, she discusses a range of examples, demonstrating the means by which artists found appropriate and effective responses to the tour, including, at times, visual forms that lay outside their familiar parameters of production.
