Tautai was founded in New Zealand in the 1980s as an informal network from an initiative by Samoan artist Fatu Feu'u and friends together with a small group of then emerging artists.

This group shared a goal of mutual support for the promotion of pacific visual art artists, including their own.This at a time when pacific art was in the very early stages of recognition as a particular genre.

Tautai supports the development of contemporary pacific art through actively fostering and maintaining links between contemporary pacific visual artists.

This new group of pacific artists represents the diverse range of visual arts coming out of the greater Auckland area
