‘Black Art White Walls’ is the second exhibition for the Grace Cossington Smith Gallery at Abbotsleigh in Wahroonga. It draws on the personal collection of Indigenous art accumulated by Adrian and Anne Newstead while working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists over the past 30 years.
Curator Djon Mundine OAM has selected 60 of the finest works from the Western Desert to the modern masters that reveal art as an expression of relationships, culture, spirituality, the land and kinship. This exhibition includes rare examples of early prints, as well as those by several of the most important printmaking exponents.
