Old Masters: Australia’s Great Bark Artists

By Australian Embassy Bangkok

This exhibition presents works from the period between 1963 and 1984, by Aboriginal painters of Australia’s Arnhem Land who were born before settler society encroached on their lands and cultures. These male artists were ritual leaders, statesmen and cultural advocates who had the traditional responsibility for painting. Their works bring Aboriginal art, one of the oldest continuing art traditions, into a new era to establish its place in the art world.

Viewers are invited to enjoy the beauty of these extraordinary works of art, which reflect on historical events, explore the sacred ancestral realm, and express a clear sense of identity.
