Aboriginal Art in America
by Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection and The Virginia Audio CollectiveEach week we spend a few minutes getting to know a work by an Indigenous Australian artist. We'll talk about medium, style, the evolution of Aboriginal art over its 50,000+ years, and the ways these works and artists transcend and translate the issues of the day from the other side of the world. Aboriginal Art in America is made by The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection, the only museum outside of Australia dedicated to the exhibition and study of Indigenous Australian art, and The Virginia Audio Collective.

The inclusive environment of Boomalli created a space for these identities to intersect. The spark lit by the founding members of Boomalli transformed what Aboriginal art could be, igniting a movement that spread across Australia.

Ngurlmarrk - The Ubarr Ceremony by Thompson Yulidjirri
2m · PublishedHuman figures, stenciled hands, and ancestralbeings gather onthe surface of this painting in a dynamic circle ofceremonialactivity. Thompson Yulidjirri’s_Ngurlmarrk—TheUbarrCeremony_is a work on paper crafted bythe late artist as part of the John W. Kluge Commission of works on paper in 1991-1992 from Injalak Arts & Crafts Association. Yulidjirri's multimedia expertise across rock, bark, and paper is evident here in his depiction of the Ubarr Ceremony, as the patterned background resembles the rock walls of nearby Injalak Hill. Visualizing connections across media and time, Yulidjirri’s painting attests to the role art plays in evoking and transferring stories and knowledge to the next generation of artists and audiences.
