Posted: Sat Apr 09, 2016 7:54 pmTalking about Contemporary Indigenous Australian art also called: Contemporary Aboriginal Australian art, people must know that is the modern art work produced by indigenous Australians and it isn't an ancient or primitive art.
This modert art starts with a painting movement at Papunya in 1971. Some artists from this movement are Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri and Kaapa Tjampitjinpa, and facilitated by white Australian teacher and art worker Geoffrey Bardon.
The movement spawned widespread interest across rural and remote Aboriginal Australia in creating art, while contemporary Indigenous art of a different nature also emerged in urban centres; together they have become central to Australian art. Indigenous art centres have fostered the emergence of the contemporary art movement, and as of 2010 were estimated to represent over 5000 artists, mostly in Australia's north and west.
