Papunya Tula Artists:
Paintings from the Western Desert
April 9 – 23
In association with Papunya Tula Artists, Metropolis Gallery is proud to present an exciting exhibition of recent paintings that reflect the strong Papunya Tula style derived from the artists' knowledge of traditional body and sand painting associated with ceremony.
This year is the 40th anniversary of the birth of Papunya Tula in 1971, which marked the beginnings of contemporary aboriginal art and what many now consider to be one of the greatest art movements of the 20th century. Paintings by Papunya Tula artists remain very highly regarded and collectable.
