ETCHED IN THE SUN
Prints by Indigenous artists
25 September - 2 November 2008, ANU Drill Hall Gallery
This exhibition will be presented in association with the ANU
Drill Hall Gallery and Basil Hall Editions (Darwin). Curated
by Djon Mundine
This exhibition of prints represents a selection of original
works made by Indigenous artists in collaboration with former
Canberra printmaker Basil Hall and his Darwin printers in the
last decade.
Etched in the Sun demonstrates the
skill with which Indigenous artists in remote communities and
urban areas have continued to adapt to new mediums and the extraordinary
results they have achieved in collaboration with a group of
leading Australian printmakers.
