    2014 » 02 » THE DEALER IS THE DEVIL Follow 4,786 followers The eye-catching cover for Adrian Newstead's book - the young dealer with Abie Jangala in Lajamanu Posted by Jeremy Eccles | 13.02.14 Author: Jeremy Eccles News source: Review Adrian Newstead is probably uniquely qualified to write a history of that contentious business, the market for Australian Aboriginal art. He may once have planned to be an agricultural scientist, but then he mutated into a craft shop owner, Aboriginal art and craft dealer, art auctioneer, writer, marketer, promoter and finally Indigenous art politician – his views sought frequently by the media. He's been around the scene since 1981 and says he held his first Tiwi craft exhibition at the gloriously named Coo-ee Emporium in 1982. He's met and argued with most of the players since then, having particularly strong relations with the Tiwi Islands, Lajamanu and one of the few inspiring Southern Aboriginal leaders, Guboo Ted Thomas from the Yuin lands south of Sydney. His heart is in the right place. And now he's found time over the past 7 years to write a 500 page tome with an alluring cover that introduces the writer as a young Indiana Jones blasting his way through deserts and forests to reach the Holy Grail of Indigenous culture as Warlpiri master Abie Jangala illuminates a canvas/story with his eloquent finger – just as the increasingly mythical Geoffrey Bardon (much to my surprise) is quoted as revealing, “Aboriginal art is derived more from touch than sight”, he's quoted as saying, “coming as it does from fingers making marks in the sand”.

  • Kathleen Petyarre
    Kathleen Petyarre Kathleen Petyarre was born c. 1940, at the remote location of Atnangkere, an important water soakage for Aboriginal people on the western boundary of Utopia, 150 miles north-east of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia. Kathleen belongs to the Alyawarre / Eastern Anmatyerre clan and speaks Eastern Anmatyerre, with English as her second language. Kathleen, with her daughter Margaret and her sister's, settled at Mosquito Bore, on Utopia near her birthplace. Kathleen now spends part of the year at her residence in Adelaide. Kathleen's mother and seven sisters have managed to hold onto their land near Utopia as a group, establishing a camp at Atneftyeye Boundary Bore. Kathleen Petyarre married her “promised” husband, a much older man. From her late teens to her late twenties, Petyarre lived conform to what it meant to be a “traditional” Anmatyerr wife and mother. Separating from her husband, Petyarre was seeking another dimension to her life. For twenty years she worked as an assistant teacher at the Utopia School. This was the most significant and formative experience of her life, in terms of developing finely tuned intercultural negotiation and mediation skills. It was during this time, in the late 1970s, that Kathleen Petyarre became involved in Utopia batik. The context for his involvement was an astonishing renaissance of Indigenous artistic production. Collectively, the Utopia women began to make a name for themselves as batik artists, the most famous of whom is Kathleen’s late aunt, Emily Kame Kngwarreye. While she was involved in batik, Kathleen Petyarre became involved in a Land Claim of immense significance to the Anmatyerr.
