Mark Adams (born 1949) is one of New Zealand's most distinguished photographers. He was born in Christchurch, New Zealand, and attended the Canterbury University School of Fine Arts from 1967–1970, majoring in graphic design to get access to photography.
After art school Adams became interested in painting through a long-term friendship with the artist Tony Fomison and later Theo Schoon. Best known for his work on documenting Samoan tatau (tattooing), Maori-Pakeha interactions around Rotorua, and historic sites around New Zealand, Adam's work has been extensively exhibited within New Zealand as well as Europe, Australia and South Africa. His work has also featured in Brazil's São Paulo biennale.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Mark Adams ) 〕〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Tatau Pe'a: Photographs by Mark Adams at Culture, Symbols, and Consciousness ) 〕 In 1997 Adams was awarded the Southland Art Foundation Artist in Residence award.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Southland Art Foundation Artist in Residence Programme - Search for Funding & Sponsors in New Zealand - NZLive.com ) 〕 His work is represented in most of New Zealand's major art institutions, including the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and Christchurch Art Gallery.
