La peinture à l’aquarelle est très localisée dans cette zone et a contribué, avec la poterie, à la réputation de ses artistes. 3 Benjarnen Python - 1995 Ocre, pigments naturels et acrylique sur papier – 38.5 x 47 cm Terre d’Arnhem Occidental – communauté d’Oenpelli 300 / 350 € Cette œuvre décrit deux pythons « Oenpelli » se lovant autour de leurs œufs. Si on trouve de nombreux serpents dans cette zone de plateaux il s’agit bien ici de célébrer l’Ancêtre Python, créateur d’une partie du relief australien, et non l’animal. 3 4 Rosie Bird Ngale Sans titre Acrylique sur toile – 135 x 173 cm Ethnie Anmatyerre – Communauté d’Utopia – Désert Central 1 500 / 2 000 € Très bel exemple d’œuvre de la communauté d’Utopia. Rosie a déposé des motifs symbolisant une cérémonie de femmes et ceux inspirés par les peintures corporelles que les initiées se peignent sur la poitrine, le haut du buste, les épaules et les bras. On retrouve la symétrie et la répétition des mêmes dessins, technique souvent employée par les artistes aborigènes. 4 3 5 Paddy Stewart Japaljarri Sans titre Acrylique sur toile – 60 x 115 cm Ethnie Warlpiri – Communauté de Yuendumu – Désert Central 1 500 / 2 000 € Il s’agit ici d’un Rêve de Ver, le commentaire de la toile est inscrit au dos. Collections : AAM, AGM, AGNSW, AGWA, FU, GDF, MAGNT, NGA, NGV, SAM, SEAM… 5 6 Gloria Petyarre Leaves Acrylique sur toile – 98 x 130 cm Ethnie Anmatyerre – Utopia – désert Central 2 500 / 3 000 € Cette série décrit un tapis de feuilles. Lorsque Gloria peint cette série elle célèbre l’esprit de cette plante dans l’espoir qu’elle poussera en abondance. Gloria Petyarre est sans doute l’une des artistes aborigènes vivantes les plus connues du grand public. Cette renommée n’est pas usurpée. Elle possède une grande capacité à se renouveler en peignant de nouvelles séries ou en donnant de celles-ci une nouvelle interprétation. Collections : BM, CCG, FU, GP, HaC, MAGNT, MQB, MV, NGA, NGV, PM, QAG, SIAM, UNSW, … 6 7 Adrian Young Tjupurrula Sans titre - Tingari Acrylique sur toile – 126 x 150 cm Ethnie Pintupi – Communauté de Kintore – Désert Occidental 2 000 / 2 500 € Depuis quelques années le style du regretté Dr George Tjapaltjarri est nettement perceptible dans la peinture d’Adrian. Les points se font rares, le fond est laissé apparent ou complété grâce à une large brosse ronde, accentuant les motifs trditionnels comme c’est le cas pour cette toile evoquant le voyage des Ancêtres Tingari. 7 4 8 8 Minnie Pwerle Atwengerrp Acrylique sur toile – 260 x 120 cm Ethnie Anmatyerre / Alyawarre – Utopia – Désert Central 14 000 / 16 000 € Le motif de cette œuvre prend toute sa dimension avec le format de la toile. Collections : AMP, EC, NGV, QAG, … 9 Walangkura Napanangka Sans titre 9 Acrylique sur toile – env. 122 x 193 cm Ethnie Pintupi – Désert Occidental – Kintore 16 000 / 18 000 € Collections : A, AAM, AGNSW, CC, CL, FK, MAGNT, NGA. 5 10 Ormay Gallagher Nangala Sans titre Acrylique sur toile – 60 x 117 cm Ethnie Warlpiri – Communauté de Yuendumu – Désert Central 800 / 1 000 € Le commentaire de la toile est inscrit au dos. 11 Rosie Nampitjinpa Sans titre Acrylique sur toile – 95 x 130 cm env.

  • Aboriginal Art Galleries
    ABORIGINAL ART GALLERIES MITJILI NAPURRULA Mitjili Napurrula was born in Ikuntji (Haasts Bluff) after her mother Tjunkayi Napaltjarri, came in from the desert with her mother, a Pintupi/Luritja woman from Yumari. Dispossession and drought were only two of the factors that led to a series of migrations from the desert to mission or government settlements in the mid-twentieth century. Following the outstation movement of the late 1970s and early 1980s, Aboriginal communities sprang up throughout the region, each home to a distinctive art movement. Despite being the first ration depot in the region, Ikuntji was one of the last communities from which this widespread renaissance of cultural affirmation emerged. Like many of her generation, Napurrula witnessed the genesis of the Papunya Tula art movement and the artistic contribution made by members of her immediate family. Tjunkayi Napaltjarri and her sister Wintjiya made small craft items for Papunya Tula Artists. Napurrula’s brother, Turkey Tolson Tjupurrula, was one of the founding members of the Papunya Tula Artists cooperative. Napurrula and Tjupurrula had the same father, Tupa Tjakamarra, from whom they inherited the right to paint works related to Ilyingaungau in the Gibson Desert. This site, south of Walungurru (Kintore), some 520 kilometres west of Mparntwe (Alice Springs), is where the artist’s Mutikatjirri ancestors assembled their kulata (spears) for a conflict with the Tjukula men. Allusive works that refer to the straightening of kulata by Tjupurrula are among the landmark paintings of the movement’s 30-year history. The bold use of colour demonstrates the artist’s confidence in her individual artistic vision within a family of superlative artists – and the cultural heritage that continues to inform the myriad expressions of Western Desert artists.

  • THE DEALER IS the DEVIL at News Aboriginal Art Directory. View Information About the DEALER IS the DEVIL
    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”.

    CONTENTS 11 Foreword 13 Introduction 15 Essay: Every 23 days... 17-21 Asialink Visual Arts Touring Exhibitions 1990-2010 23-86 Venue List 89-91 Index 92-93 Acknowledgements 94 FOREWORD 13 Asialink celebrates twenty years as a leader in Australia-Asia engagement through business, government, philanthropic and cultural partnerships. Part of the celebration is the publication of this booklet to commemorate the Touring Visual Arts Exhibitions Program which has been a central focus of Asialink’s work over this whole period. Artistic practice encourages dialogue between different cultures, with visual arts particularly able to transcend language barriers and create immediate and exciting rapport. Asialink has presented some of the best art of our time to large audiences in eighteen countries across Asia through exhibition and special projects, celebrating the strength and creativity on offer in Australia and throughout the region. The Australian Government, through the Visual Arts Board of the Australia Council and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, is pleased to provide support to Asialink as it continues to present the talents of artists of today to an ever increasing international audience. The Hon Stephen Smith MP Minister for Foreign Affairs INTRODUCTION 15 Every 23 Days: 20 Years Touring Asia documents the journey of nearly 80 Australian-based contemporary exhibitions’ history that have toured primarily through Asia as a part of the Asialink Touring Exhibition Program. This publication provides a chronological and in-depth overview of these exhibitions including special country focused projects and an introductory essay reflecting on the Program’s history. Since its inception in 1990, Asialink has toured contemporary architecture, ceramics, glass, installation, jewellery, painting, photography, textiles, video, works on paper to over 200 venues in Asia.

  • 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.
