ABORIGINAL ART - WALLY CARUANA KARTONIERT (TB)

This concise survey showcases the work of Australia's indigenous artists from all parts of the
continent. From Arnhem Land and the desert  the Kimberley and northern Queensland  to modern
towns and cities  Aboriginal artists have built on traditions that stretch back at least 50 000
years  working in a variety of contexts from the sacred and secret realm of ceremony to more
public spheres. Work across all media is included  from painting  sculpture  engraving 
constructions and weaving to the most recent work in photography  printmaking and textile
design. The story of Aboriginal art is brought into the 21st century in this revised and
expanded third edition with a new chapter that maps the latest developments across each of
Australia's geographical regions. Updated information and more than twenty-five new
illustrations highlight  among other things  the impact of urban living  the growth of local
art centres which support the work of indigenous artists  and the rise of women artists - all
testifying to Aboriginal art's continued dynamism and vitality.
