The exhibition presents deceptively peaceful works in a range of mediums by Waanyi artist Judy Watson and Kokatha and Nukunu artist Yhonnie Scarce. The exhibition has been developed by TarraWarra Museum of Art in partnership with Ikon Gallery (Birmingham, UK) and curatorial adviser Hetti Perkins.⁣

NETS Victoria has partnered with fundraising platform The Australian Cultural Fund. Donations over $2 are tax deductible. You will make a real difference so that we can pay best practice artist and writer fees and support the artists to discuss their work with audiences across Australia. Any amount you can give will be a huge help to the project 🙏🙏

We extend a very warm welcome to Myles Russell-Coo

We extend a very warm welcome to Myles Russell-Cook who has joined our newly created Artistic Program Advisory Committee. Myles is the Curator of Indigenous Art at the National Gallery of Victoria. He is jointly responsible for the National Gallery of Victoria’s collections of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art and the Art of Oceania, Pre-hispanic America and Africa.⁣
⁣
Myles’ passion is for First Nations contemporary art, and much of his influence and inspiration comes from his own maternal Aboriginal heritage in Western Victoria with connections into Tasmania and the Bass Strait islands.⁣

Myles has lectured in Art History, Design Anthropology and Indigenous Studies at Swinburne University, and he is currently editor of the NGV’s annual scholarly publication, The Art Journal.⁣
