Murruwaygu
There's more to line than meets the eye.
Overview
This show at the Art Gallery of NSW’s Yiribana Gallery will illuminate a specific strand of Koori art practice — the use of line by male artists. The historical scope of artists represented will be drawn from pre-contact to today and will include William Barak, Tommy McRae, Roy Kennedy, HJ Wedge, Steaphan Paton and Reko Rennie. Showcasing a variety of materials – from shields through to paintings – Murrywaygu will examine the cultural evolution of line and its myriad applications.
