Nigel Borell is the curator behind Auckland Art Gallery's landmark exhibition of Māori art Toi Tū Toi Ora, and winner of the Arts Foundation's inaugural He Momo - A Moment In Time Award this year. Since he resigned from the gallery after five years as head Māori art curator, publicly calling on arts institutions to be better at sharing power, he's been in demand with artists and galleries wanting him to curate their shows.

Nigel is also a trustee and curator of the new The Wairau Māori Art Gallery in the Hundertwasser Building in Whangarei, it's a long and sometimes difficult path but the plan was for it to open late this year.
