Summary
This catalogue accompanies the first major US presentation of art by indigenous women of Australia. The exhibition showcases 34 artists' important contributions to contemporary painting and represents communities across the continent. The intensely colourful canvases and extremely intricate paintings on bark draw on ancient stories - or Dreamings - and symbols, as well as each artist's deep connection to the land. It is this link to ancient tradition that makes Australian Aboriginal art so unique
