Join us at 3.30pm on Saturday 4 March to hear Djon Mundine OAM FAHA speak about the exhibition Three Echoes - Western Desert Art and touch on significant moments in the history of Western Desert Art from the early men’s paintings of Papunya Tula, to the artists of Ikuntji, through to the Utopia women’s paintings and batiks.
Three Echoes – Western Desert Art is a stunning exhibition exploring the poetic notion of echoes – how metaphorically and metaphonically we can echo a thought, a sentiment or a consciousness. Three Echoes – Western Desert Art celebrates our world’s oldest continuous living culture and artistic traditions that span tens of thousands of years and features paintings, prints and batiks.
