	New Zealand Cross - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Mark Cross - New Zealand Born Artist living in Niue
		At the age of 23 he moved with his family to his wife’s village, Liku, on the island of Niue and it was during these early years that a strong philosophic and stylistic foundation was established for his career as an Artist.
		There was disillusionment with the institutional oriented nature of the art scene in New Zealand and the isolation provided both the inspiration and lack of distraction needed to develop his work in an individualistic way.
		Cross now lives in Niue and although the work is very specific in it’s detail, reference to the island is restricted to the use of local elements for the creation of a timeless, lateral world where his figures act out and question the foibles of humanity but never try to proffer answers.

		New Zealand Red Cross has committed 13 aid workers to relief efforts in the six months since the Boxing Day tsunami and will progressively step up its contribution throughout a rehabilitation phase expected to span 10 years, Director General Andrew Weeks says.
		"New Zealand Red Cross is hugely grateful to New Zealanders who contributed so generously to enable us to send these delegates and the many more we will need to deploy to South Asia for years to come, at the same time as we support multi-lateral relief efforts through the International Red Cross," Mr Weeks says.
		All money donated by the New Zealand public directly supports the appeal, as New Zealand Red Cross administration costs for special appeals are covered by income from Red Cross shops and first aid training.
