Hotere
"Hotere" is a documentary about a complex man who is Aotearoa New Zealand's greatest living artist. Ralph Hotere is intensely creative and wildly innovative yet he has produced works of profound refinement and essential distillation. This film is about these works and his refusal to expound upon them. "There are very few things I can say about my work that are better than saying nothing." - Ralph Hotere.
