Senior adviser at Massey's College of Creative Arts and Chair of the Wellington Sculpture Trust Sue Elliott talks to Mark Amery from RNZ's Standing Room Only about a public art register to keep track of our public art including E. Mervyn Taylor's murals, the focus of Wanted: The search for the modernist murals of E. Mervyn Taylor. Listen to the full interview here.

If you want to learn more about Taylor's murals, head along to the presentation on the book and research project hosted by the College of Creative Arts, Aratoi Wairarapa Museum of Art and History and Hedleys Books on 14 July 2018. An illustrated talk with Bronwyn Holloway-Smith, editor of Wanted, will take place at Aratoi, followed by a walking tour of the two E. Mervyn Taylor Masterton murals.
