Dear Friends of Redot Fine Art Gallery. NEWSLETTER – JUNE/JULY Dear Friends of ReDot Fine Art Gallery. NEWSLETTER – JUNE/JULY 2011 WHAT'S ON... AND COMING UP... THIS MONTH'S ARTIST PROFILE: NELLIE STEWART NEWS: YULUTJI WINS WYNNE AWARDS & WA AWARDS FINALISTS ANNOUNCED ANNOUNCEMENTS: NEW ARRIVALS WHAT'S ON... JUNE - JULY “NGURA INKANYI - Singing Country” ReDot Fine Art Gallery is honoured to host an exhibition hailing from the heart of Modern Contemporary Aboriginal Art. Tjungu Palya and Ninuku Arts are two artist-run art-centres in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in the far north west of South Australia. Between them they represent artists from Nyapari, Kanpi, Watarru, Angatja, Kalka and Pipalyatjara communities, with many of the artists ‘first contact’ bush people, retaining strong cultural knowledge and a willingness to share what is appropriate to people of other cultures. The centres promote traditional arts practices while also encouraging new forms of artistic expression in the re-telling of the Tjukurpa (‘Dreaming’ - Law). These communities stand at the apex of modern Aboriginal art movement, celebrating culture, ancestry, and landscape while concurrently ensuring the sustainability of the surrounding communities. When the pursuit of artistry is coupled so consummately with care for man and earth, the results mirror that which makes this one of the purest forms of expression seen in the modern art world today. Works from these artists resonate with an abundance of cultural integrity, vivid colours, mesmerising designs, deep knowledge, encapsulating a celebration of ceremony, ancestry and landscape. ReDot invites anyone fascinated by indigenous art to step into a world that is familiar in simplicity but memorizing in depth and Kay BAKER (11004) wonder. The living stories virtually leap off each canvas and 144cm x 195cm begs the viewer to look more deeply for meaning and consequence. View Exhibition's works Works from these communities grace prestigious public and private collections including those most lauded across Australia and globally. Additionally, we will showcase last year’s Telstra Indigenous art award winning artist, Jimmy Donegan, as well as other acclaimed artists, such as Tiger Palpatja, Nellie Stewart, Harry Tjutjuna, Sandy Brumby, Maringka Baker, Ginger Wikilyiri, Keith Stevens, David Miller, Eileen Stevens and Nyankulya Watson, in this magnificent representation. The exhibition runs till Saturday, 23rd July 2011. For further information contact [email protected]. COMING UP... LATE JULY - AUGUST “BALGO 2011” ReDot Fine Art Gallery is proud to present our annual show of the colourful works of the Warlayirti Artists Aboriginal Corporation. Warlayirti Artists is located in Balgo, in the arid north east of Western Australia, between the Great Sandy and Tanami Deserts. As a midpoint between Alice Springs and Broome, this remote community, originally known as Balgo Hills, was established as a Catholic mission in 1939. Its 400 inhabitants are mostly Kukatja speakers, but seven main languages can be found here, making it a rich cultural and religious area, steeped in history. Warlayirti Artists represents more than 350 artists across three communities in the Kutjungka region. Some of Australia’s leading contemporary artists as well as a large number of promising young pretenders are producing bright pieces with deceiving simple compositions. These creations harbour complex stories of the landscape and cycles of life of the desert. Warlayirti Artists was established in 1987 with the employment of an art-coordinator, following the success of the first exhibition of Balgo art titled, “Paintings from the Great Sandy Desert,” featured at the Art Gallery of Western Australia in 1986. However, the first public paintings by Balgo artists were banners completed in 1981 for the celebration of Father Piele’s Silver Jubilee. Following this, people began painting on canvas board through the Catholic run Wirrumanu Adult Education and Training Centre. Kuyarria MUDGEDELL NAKAMARRA (545/09) Since those humble beginnings the organisation has grown 200cm x 120cm significantly and the artists represented by Warlayirti Artists have emerged as some of Australia’s leading contemporary indigenous artists. As a result Warlayirti Artists contributes significantly to View Works from Balgo the social, cultural and economic well-being of the Indigenous residents of the Kutjungka region. It is the only organisation in the region that offers indigenous people the opportunity to actively participate in the market economy. Balgo artworks have gained a reputation for their boldness and vigor, commanding respect wherever they are exhibited. Artists like Eubena Nampitjin, Elizabeth Nyumi, Tjumpo Tjapanangka, Boxer Milner and Helicopter Tjungurrayi paved the way for the new generation of talents. Some have now departed but the success and future of the community has been firmly cemented by the emergence of these new stars such as Christine Yukenbarri, Theresa Nowee, Imelda Gugaman and Pauline Sunfly to name but a few, all ensuring that Warlayirti Artists will flourish into the new century. The exhibition opens on Wednesday, 27th July and runs till Saturday, 3rd September 2011. For further information contact [email protected].

Congratulations to all for being shortlisted. ARTIST'S PROFILE NELLIE STEWART This month we profile an artist from the APY Lands of Central/West Australia, the home of some of the most remote Aboriginal settlements. Nellie Stewart was born in the bush at Pipalyatjara, her father's country in the late 1930's. Her mother is from Irrunytju and is Kuntjil Cooper's older sister. As a young girl Nellie attended school at the Ernabella mission and later worked in Alice Springs teaching Pitjantjatjara language with her husband. She began painting in 2007 when she moved to Nyapari with her family. Nellie is a senior Pitjantjatjara woman who only began painting in 2007. She has an intuitve feeling for painting, drawing on her deep cultural connection to her country associated with the Tjukurpa of Minyma Kutjara (the Two Sisters Creation story) from Irrunytju. Her works are bold and colourful landscapes depicting country traversed by the two Ancestral women. Landmarks created by their epic journeying and activities embody a spiritual essence, which is captured in her paintings. According to Art writer, Dr. Christine Nicholls "Nellie Stewart creates artworks of classical simplicity, based on her major Irruntyju-centred thématique of the Two Sisters Dreaming. Stewart’s luscious, gestural works are characterised by bold colour juxtapositions, often comprising a limited palette of reds, mauves and orangey-reds. Often she emphasises significant aspects of the broader narrative by her use of lighter, contrasting colours; for example, she sometimes deploys a light mauve or white, in order to draw attention to or highlight a significant Nellie STEWART(10485) element or motif in the narrative. 128cm x 194cm Typically Nellie Stewart uses the technique of over-painting a dark background, using brushstrokes in ways that evoke the View Nellie's Works women’s ceremonial body painting designs painted onto dark skin. Stewart uses her brush in ways akin to the ways in which women use their fingers to smear layers of paint onto the darker background, in preparation for women-only ceremonies (‘inma’). The mark-making, such an integral part of women’s body painting, also plays a decisive role in Nellie Stewart’s extraordinary artworks." ReDot Fine Art Gallery is proud to have 4 significant works by Nellie in our current show.

    HARRY TJUTJUNA Sprache: Pitjantjatjara Region: Pipalyatjara und Ernabella (APY Lands), South Australia Geboren: 1929 © Ninuku Arts Harry wurde im Jahre 1929 im Busch in Walytjatjara geboren, nordöstlich von Pipalyatjara. Harry ist einer der bedeutendsten Gesetzesmänner in der Gegend, nur wenige Menschen seiner Generation leben noch. Darüber hinaus ist er ein hoch angesehener Künstler und traditioneller Heiler. Harrys Muttersprache ist Pit- jantjatjara. Er hat eine starke familiäre Bindung zu den APY (Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara) Lands in South Australia und in den Westen in Richtung Warburton Ranges. Als junger Mann zog Harry viel umher. Er lebte in Pukatja (Ernabella), wo es viele Jahre lang eine Missions- station gab. Diese wurde 1937 gegründet und vorrangig dafür eingerichtet, um den örtlichen Anangu (regio- naler Begriff für australische Ureinwohner) medizinische Versorgung und westliche Bildung zur Verfügung zu stellen. Harry besuchte die Schule in Pukatja. Später zog er weiter in eine Siedlung, wo er verschiedene Tätigkeiten ausübte: Er grub Bohrlöcher, machte Einzäunungen und Gartenarbeiten und arbeitete viele Jah- re als Viehhirte. Schließlich zog Harry mit seiner Familie in den fernen Nordwesten der APY Lands zurück, wo er hauptsächlich in und um Wingellina (Western Australia) und Pipalyatjara lebte. Seit 2015 lebt er im Altenheim von Ernabella. Harrys Wissen über die Tjukurpa (Schöpfungsgeschichte), die mit dem Land um Pipalyatjara in Verbindung steht, ist enorm und aufgrund seines Alters unübertroffen. Er malt eine große Bandbreite von Geschichten, wie zum Beispiel: Wati Wanka: Spinnenmann; Wati Nyiru, der Mann, der die sieben Schwestern jagt und schließlich eine von ihnen heiratet; Kungka Tjuta, junge Mädchen, die milpatjunanyi nachgehen, der tradi- tionellen Art des Geschichtenerzählens im Sand.

They are the traditional owners of the land and they hold the stories of the country deep within their hearts.” Nganampa Ngura (Our Place) “Aboriginal Art is my art. These paintings in this exhibition, in particular, are my art. These paintings come from my land and my soil. They are the art of my people.” - Lois O’Donoghue CBE, AM, Australian of the Year, Opening Speech, Dot and Circle Exhibition, 1985 4 Although this insightful sentiment was expressed by a renowned Indigenous leader some work over the past decade, the award winning painting is solemn and emphatic in its 5 27 years ago, it still resonates clearly today. Nganampa Ngura (Our Place) is a celebration design, but dazzlingly illuminated. The artist’s technique is to compose the colour lines of place, home and country of birth. It symbolises the deep roots that connect Indigenous of his canvases from thousands of large dots in different hues, which blend into a whole.’ Australians with their homeland – in this instance, the artists from two remote (The Weekend Australian, August 2010). communities, Pipalyatjara and Kalka, in the South Australian Desert. For Ninuku Arts, whose artists are still considered to be ‘emerging’, this first independent international Nganampa Ngura (Our Place) boasts an exciting group of master works painted group exhibition of the artists’ work breaks new ground.

  • Indigenous Participation in Australian Economies II Map 5.1 the APY Landsmap 5.1 Lea Et Al
    5. ‘Always Anangu—always enterprising’ Alan O’Connor As a result of primary research in Arnhem Land, Altman developed a hybrid economy model for Indigenous Australians living in remote areas in which people move between the state, market and customary sectors (Altman 2005). He asserts that development policies for remote areas based on the state and the market have failed because of the existence of a customary sector and very different intercultural value systems. In addition, he suggests the commercial marginality of Aboriginal-owned land is the reason it was alienated, and as a result the potential to increase the market sector is very limited (Altman 2005). In this chapter, I examine Anangu involvement in economic life until the mid- 1970s with a particular focus on Ernabella and its homelands, and explore elements of the hybrid economy on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands. This work is part of my thesis, developed from a larger study of enterprise development on the lands resulting from an Australian Research Council grant in 2007 obtained by Banerjee and Tedmanson. The research was conducted through the University of South Australia. The research partners in this work were from the communities of Ernabella, Turkey Bore and the Anilalya Homelands as well as UnitingCare Wesley Adelaide. Geography, Climate and Traditional Food Sources The APY Lands are located in the far north-west of South Australia and make up 102 500 sq km or 10.4 per cent of the area of South Australia. Ernabella is the largest community on the lands (with a population that has varied about 450 for many years) and is approximately 440 km by road from both Alice Springs and Coober Pedy.
