Abstract

The return of the National Gallery of Australia's major exhibition of Aboriginal Art after its tour to major galleries in Switzerland, Germany and Russia. The exhibition features a selection of work by important individual artists of the modern era and two collaborative works, including the Aboriginal Memorial. The artists featured are at the very frontier of the interaction between indigenous and non-indigenous cultures, and include Rover Thomas, Emily Kam Kngwarray, John Mawurndjul, Nym Bandak, Tracey Moffatt and Fiona Foley. This will be the Gallery's major exhibition during the Olympics. [Gallery media, 2000].
