These song cycles / creation stories form part of the teachings of the initiated youth, providing the basis for contemporary customs. Many of the stories relate to the sacred sites around the Lake MacDonald area. These creation stories tell of the epic journey of the ancestors, the Tingari Men and Women who travelled through the land in the Dreamtime (Tjukurrpa) creating particular sites and teaching Aboriginal law.

The Tingari are a group of men of the Dreaming creation era, who travelled over vast stretches of the country, performing rituals and creating and shaping particular sites.

These legends form part of the teachings of the post-initiatory youths today, as well as providing explanations for contemporary customs. The artist stands in his Akubra with his work.

  • Contemporary Australian Art from the Balgo Hills
    Contemporary Australian Art from the Balgo Hills Forewords Contemporary Australian Art from the Balgo Hills On behalf of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), through its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander program, I am pleased to present the exhibition, BALGO: Contemporary Australian Art from the Balgo Hills. This is one of the most impressive exhibitions which DFAT has toured overseas in order to promote greater understanding and awareness of Australia’s Indigenous cultures. The artworks in this exhibition, which are more colourful than the Indigenous artworks that many viewers would be familiar with, convey the energy and dynamism of the culture of the mainly Kukatja language- speaking artists at the Warlayirti Artists Art Centre in the Balgo Hills region. Consisting of contemporary paintings and etchings, the exhibition also presents a range of stories that demonstrate the strong connection Aboriginal people have with their traditions and the ways in which they are being maintained today. Balgo is produced by DFAT in conjunction with Artbank, the Australian Government’s art rental program. All the works have been sourced from the Artbank Collection, and Artbank is also making its expertise available to present the exhibition for its international tour. I am confident that this fascinating exhibition from the Balgo Hills, in my home State of Western Australia, will engage you and promote a deeper understanding of the rich and vibrant culture of Aboriginal Australia. Stephen Smith MP Minister for Foreign Affairs Artbank, the Australian Government’s contemporary art rental initiative, is delighted to be working once again with the Images of Australia Branch of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade to produce an exciting new touring exhibition illustrating the strength and vibrancy of Australia’s Indigenous art.

  • Linda Syddick NAPALTJARRI
    Linda Syddick NAPALTJARRI Linda Syddick Napaltjarri was born in 1937 at « Erranwaltta » the middle lake close to Wilkinarra (Lake mackay) in the Gibson Desert, WA. Linda’s father Rintje Tjungarrayi was Pitjantjatjara & and her mother Wanada Nangala Pintupi. Rintje was killed in an inter-tribal spearing when Linda was an infant. She was then raised by her step father Shorty Langkata Tjungarrayi who was one of the original groups of Pintupi men to start painting in the early 1970’s. Linda’s family walked out of the desert in the mid 1940’s to Haasts Bluff where she was educated by the Lutheran Missionaries. Linda has been married several times; her first husband was Tommy Wilpinta. After his death her second husband was Musty Syddick. His father was a cameleer from North India who transported goods over the desert in the early 20 th century. She still uses his family name, although she was since remarried. Painting: Linda was taught to paint by shorty Lungkata, before his death in 1987. He encouraged Linda to continue painting. She received further guidance from Nosepeg Tjupurrula & Uta Uta Tjangala. Linda has since developed her own distinctive style by combining her tribal knowledge with her Christian beliefs. After seeing the E.T in the early 1990’s (which she watched more than twenty times) Linda began a series of paintings that embraced her strong Christian beliefs & combined her extensive knowledge of mythological dreaming. She interpreted E.T as an ancestral spirit world. Linda also paints Tingari dreamings, her father’s Emu story and mother’s Snake story which depicts both mythological stories & actual events of traditional life in the desert.

  • Exhibiting Western Desert Aboriginal Painting in Australia's Public Galleries
    Exhibiting Western Desert Aboriginal painting in Australia’s public galleries: an institutional analysis, 1981-2002 Jim Berryman Introduction Contemporary Aboriginal art, and the Western Desert painting movement in particular, now occupies a central position in the story of Australian art history. However, despite this recognition, Western Desert painting was slow to receive widespread critical and art-historical attention in the Australian art institutional setting. Eluding standard systems of art-historical classification, Australia’s public galleries struggled to situate Aboriginal acrylic painting within the narrative formations of Australian and international art practice. This paper charts the exhibition history of the movement, commencing with Papunya’s first appearance at a contemporary art event in 1981 until the movement’s institutional commemoration some two decades later. An analysis of catalogues from key exhibitions reveals three common strategies used by curators to interpret this new visual culture. Based on art-historical and anthropological discursive formations, these interpretative frameworks are called the aesthetic, ethnographic and ownership discourses. This investigation concentrates on the activities of Australia’s public galleries.1 As the traditional guardians of artistic standards, these institutions occupy positions of authority in the Australian art world. Comparative interpretations: aesthetic, ethnographic and ownership It is beyond the scope of this paper to explain the circumstances that gave rise to the

    FRIENDLY COUNTRY FRIENDLY PEOPLE Artworks from Papunya Tula 25 July - 18 October 2020 Latrobe Regional Gallery is located on the traditional land of the Braiakaulung people of the Gunaikurnai nation. We pay respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. FRIENDLY COUNTRY FRIENDLY PEOPLE Artwork from Papunya Tula Latrobe Regional Gallery is so proud to remount this exhibition which was first presented at Araluen Arts Centre in 1990. In a feat of remarkable foresight, the entire exhibition was purchased to become part of the CBus Collection of Australian Art, a valuable collection of contemporary art that LRG is the custodian of. This idea of custodianship is so central to the culture and creative practice of Aboriginal artists, elders and communities. It is with this intention that we invited Jessica Clark, Palawa woman and independent curator to offer a perspective on this remarkable exhibition. What Jessica offers us is an insight into the ongoing resonance and impact of self-determination, and how this is communicated through visual culture as an act of leadership and great generosity. As one proud Palawa woman to another, it is my pleasure to present Jessica’s powerful writing, just as it is our pleasure to present this exhibition for you to enjoy. Bec Cole DIRECTOR With Thanks CBUS Collection of Australian Art as advised by Dr Joseph Brown AO OBE Araluen Arts Centre Latrobe Regional Gallery is owned and operated by Latrobe City Council with support from Creative Victoria.

  • Papunya Tula
    Motel, 2020 archival inkjet print 100 x 93 cm edition of 8 + 1AP $1,900 unframed PAPUNYA TULA ARTISTS 50 years of Papunya Tula 18 June - 17 July 2021 at Michael Reid Berlin The Papunya Tula Art Movement began in 1971 when a school teacher, Geoffrey Bardon, encouraged some of the men to paint a mural on the local school. The murals sparked off tremendous interest in the community of Papunya in the Northern Territory and soon many men started painting, with women artists carving out their own space in subsequent decades. In 1972 the artists successfully established their own company which is entirely owned and directed by Aboriginal people from the Western Desert. The company derives its name from Papunya, a settlement 240km north-west of Alice Springs, with two art centres in Kintore and Kiwirrkura. “Before the early 1970s, Aboriginal artists had never painted their stories with acrylic on canvas using a traditional lexicon of signs and symbols. That groundbreaking innovation, engineered by Geoff Bardon, translated one of the world’s oldest living artforms into an utterly contemporary movement.” -John McDonald b y G E R W Y N D A V I E S Morris Gibson Tjapaltjarri (1957-2017) Untitled, 2012 acrylic on linen 107 × 91 cm Community stock number: 1210021 $4,800 Provenance: Papunya Tula Artists Pty Limited, NT Morris Gibson Tjapaltjarri was born in 1957 and is the son of famed Papunya Tula artist, Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi and Ningura Napurrula, and is also closely related to artist Willy Tjungurrayi.

The paintings came with little or no documentation. This report documents what happened when now well-known, mature artists were asked to “look back” to a time when the art movement was in its infancy, struggling to survive. Many paintings brought back memories of Country, Dreamings and passed-away artists. At the date of publication, only two of the artists are still alive. This invaluable information has enriched an already historically important collection of early Western Desert art.
