In her vast and astonishing oeuvre, Kngwarray embodied the majestic scope of her country and ancestral heritage. She layered motifs representing the plants, animals, and geological features that formed the desert ecosystems around her. Her unique style and powerful creative vision redefined aboriginal art and gained worldwide attention. Created in collaboration with the National Gallery of Australia (NGA), this is the first large-scale presentation of the artist's work ever held in Europe and a celebration of her astonishing career. Generously illustrated, the publication brings together Kngwarray's most significant works and includes archival material and a visual record of community consultations and visits to Kngwarray's country. The publication and exhibition has been organized by Tate Modern and the National Gallery of Australia based on an exhibition and curated by Kelli Cole, Warumungu and Luritja peoples, and Hetti Perkins, Arrernte and Kalkadoon peoples.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKelli Cole\u003c\/b\u003e is director of Curatorial \u0026amp; Engagement, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Gallery of Australia. \u003cb\u003eHetti Perkins\u003c\/b\u003e is an Arrernte and Kalkadoon curator, writer, advisor and presenter, with 30 years working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander visual arts. \u003cb\u003eJennifer Green\u003c\/b\u003e is a linguist based in the School of Languages and Linguistics at the University of Melbourne and a member of the Research Unit for Indigenous Language (RUIL).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Tate Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52160349241618,"sku":"9781849769761","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_dead338d-e0fe-4d5d-a7c4-c61f6a7297af.jpg?v=1775054650","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/emily-kam-kngwarray-9781849769761","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
