Gallery Gondwana,
representing contemporary aboriginal art since 1990
 |
divas of the
desert
In its 8th year running,
Divas of the Desert is recognized as one of the leading all
female indigenous art exhibitions in Australia. Showcasing
iconic as well as contemporary indigenous art, Divas
represents a who's who of female artists as well as a launching
point for emerging artists. In
previous years Divas has highlighted the careers of
artists such as Dorothy Napangardi, Mitjili Napanangka Gibson,
Judy Napangardi Watson and Elizabeth Nyumi.
We are excited to bring
back some of your old favourites and introduce you to some of
the new talent coming from the central and western deserts.
Gallery Gondwana has recently visited a number of
community art centres hand picking the paintings for Divas
2008. We are also excited to show you the new work by
Gallery Gondwana's own Divas (Dorothy Napangardi, Mitjili
Napanankga Gibson, and Julie Nangala Robinson) working at the
Gallery's studio in Alice Springs. Divas 2008 is one of the most promising collections Gallery Gondwana
has put together. |
