Pātū Toi | Art Wall brings together over 400 artworks from across Te Papa’s collection. Choose your favourite, write a comment about why you love it, and see it projected on the wall.

Over the next few months we’ll also be hanging a series of favourite artworks, as chosen by visitors. We kick off in July with Michael Smither’s Big occity (1970) – the painting most often commented on when Pātū Toi / Art Wall was launched in 2017.

Visit the Pātū Toi | Art Wall exhibition to dive into your national art collection and choose a painting to project.
