The gallery idea comes from 37 mainly Barkindji men and women who are transforming a dusty town park in Wilcannia in western New South Wales. It will become Reconciliation Park, a green, welcoming space with picnic tables, a playground, barbecues and large-scale Aboriginal artworks by local artists. From the comfort of their cars, people will be able to enjoy the art, which will reflect what reconciliation means to the artists. “There’s this misconception that Wilcannia is a bad place, so if we can get people to drive through and see how good it is, they’ll hopefully stay for a while and contribute to the local economy,” says Wilcannia Community Development Employment Project (CDEP) manager Trevor Johnstone. Johnstone, a Nyampa man from nearby Menindee, says when the Central Darling Shire Council first told him it had funding to develop Reconciliation Park, he and local community members jumped at the idea of using the space to show local art. Wilcannia CDEP participants started drafting plans for the drive-through gallery last year and consulted with the wider community, talking through issues with a few people who initially opposed the idea. Wiradjuri man Terry Doolan was one of the CDEP Participant Committee members who assisted and saw plans for the park progress through council. He says the group wanted to value-add to the town and put Aboriginal culture front and centre. “Barkindji people want to see their Aboriginal culture on display – people will be able to see these big artworks from the hospital rooms across the road and tourists will see it when they drive through,” Doolan says. “Others in the community can get involved by contributing artworks that showcase reconciliation. “We have now got wonderful dialogue and understanding with the council. We are delighted to have ownership of the park and to work on this from start to finish. It’s a two-and-a-half year process and we’re in it for the long haul.” “I am so proud of the community’s efforts on this project and the positive outcomes,” Johnstone says. “These little communities have missed out for too long, and it’s all about changing that.” http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/gallery/wilcannia.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/gallery/wilcannia.php Commercial gallery Thu, 22 Jul 2010 23:21:59 +0930 http://bimawear.wordpress.com/]]> http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/aboriginal-art-centre/bima-wear.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/aboriginal-art-centre/bima-wear.php Aboriginal art centre Acrylic on Canvas Acrylic on Paper Australia Bathurst Island Batik Etchings Fibre Weaving Fibre Work Linocuts Online store Textiles Tiwi Islands Weavings bima wear Tue, 13 Jul 2010 20:28:22 +0930

As one of the few Australian Aboriginal owned and operated museum THE KEEPING PLACE "Black Fella's Dreaming" exhibits both traditional and contemporary artworks of Aboriginal art as well as housing a unique range of historical literature and artefacts (artifacts). "I had a dream to keep my best paintings, then somehow I couldn't stand to sell other Black Fellas' paintings cheaply in my gallery and I tried to keep the best of their work and it turned into Black Fella's Dreaming Museum. The name is Black Fella's Dreaming = one Black fella, me. It was my dream." - Gordon Frederick Syron It has been Gordon's dream to foster self-respect within the Aboriginal community; to create jobs, promote Aboriginal art and increase the awareness and fill in the large gaps of Australian h http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/public-art-gallery/the-keeping-place-black-fellas-dreaming.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/public-art-gallery/the-keeping-place-black-fellas-dreaming.php Public art gallery Wed, 09 Jun 2010 19:03:27 +0930 http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/festivals-prizes/national-parks-and-wildlife-service-aboriginal-art-award.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/festivals-prizes/national-parks-and-wildlife-service-aboriginal-art-award.php Festivals & prizes Tue, 08 Jun 2010 01:48:10 +0930 Based in Wimbledon Village, London, Sarah-Jane Holden runs exhibitions of Australian Contemporary Aboriginal Art. The collection is probably the most comprehensive collection of paintings of Central and Western and Eastern Desert artists currently in the UK. Aboriginal art is a firm favourite in British and in European Art collections, both public and private. The Sarah-Jane Holden Exhibitions in the UK are a viewing platform to see the huge variety, skill and talent among Aboriginal artists. Contemporary graphics and design enable the art to fit seamlessly into today's modern interior, and the drama of a large scale painting can be achieved through a relatively modest outlay. Provenance for artworks is guaranteed by way of a detailed Authenticity Certificate. These provide the purchaser with photographs of the artist working on the painting, information about the artist, awards, collections, and the story of the painting itself. The detail will depend on the cultural sensitivities surrounding a particular story. The aboriginal paintings are prepared to a museum standard. They are painted on Belgian linen prepared with gesso and with two layers of undercoat. The artists use polymer acrylic paint. Sarah-Jane works with two galleries in Austraila to promote Aboriginal paintings, Tingari Arts of Central Australia and Utopian Aboriginal Eastern Desert Art. http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/private-collection/sarahjane-holden-aboriginal-art.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/private-collection/sarahjane-holden-aboriginal-art.php London Private collection Mon, 07 Jun 2010 22:56:30 +0930 Australia Council.]]> http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/festivals-prizes/qantas-indigenous-young-and-emerging-visual-arts-award.php http://www.aboriginalartdirectory.com/shop/festivals-prizes/qantas-indigenous-young-and-emerging-visual-arts-award.php Festivals & prizes Wed, 02 Jun 2010 18:37:46 +0930
