ART FROM MILINGIMBI | TAKING MEMORIES BACK

Art from Milingimbi, developed in close collaboration with the Milingimbi community, celebrates these artists and their art. It presents for the first time sixty-two exquisite bark paintings by fifteen artists, as well as ceremonial and utilitarian objects from a unique collection held at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. While there has been great interest in art from western and northeastern Arnhem Land and Ramingining, there has been little written or published on the exemplary art of Milingimbi. With new research conducted with the Milingimbi community, this book is the first publication about Milingimbi and the exemplary artists working there in the 1950s.
