Shining Light: prints by leading contemporary Indigenous artists from Nomad Art Collections

24 April - 31 May 2020

 

Curated by Talitha Kennedy

 

An exhibition of limited edition prints by artists from remote Australia. Featuring works by: Nyapanyapa Yunupingu, Janangoo Butcher Cherel (dec), Pedro Wonaeamirri, Elizabeth Nyumi (dec), Bardayal Nadjamerrek (dec), Dorothy Napangardi (dec), Ronnie Tjampitjinpa.

 

Selected from Nomad Art’s comprehensive catalogue of limited edition prints, this exhibition celebrates the strength and diversity of art from the Top End, Kimberley and Central Australia through etchings, silkscreens, linocuts and lithographs.

‘Printmaking has been the ignition for many leading Indigenous artists who headline contemporary biennales and win major art awards. Works by these artists have energised the contemporary art scene with powerful creations that roar with deep culture and gift us an experience of country. In light of recent grand scale installations and immersive media works grabbing attention in the big exhibitions and events, I want to draw attention to the intimacy of prints on paper’. Talitha Kennedy 2020
