Abstract

Ernabella Arts is a gallery and studio space based 440km south west of Alice Springs, near the Northern Territory/South Australian Border, with a focus on developing sustainable cultural heritage practices. The work produced from these studios includes batik, paintings, print making, ceramics, screen prints, carvers and basket making. This year Ernabella celebrate their 60th anniversary with the aim of producing a greater awareness of members’ talents. Director Cudgegong Gallery Lyn Cole travelled to Ernabella in June to select works for the show and is excited to be presenting such a range of works across these specialist mediums. Accompanying the exhibition will be an artists’ demonstration by two of the Ernabella artists. [Gallery media]
