History pushed to the margins

Article Abstract:

The 1998 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards were given at a ceremony held in Darwin. Bark paintings, three-dimensional works, and paintings portrayed cross-cultural relationships, subtle humor, and the significance of tradition in modern sensibilities. For many Aboriginal people, art becomes another carrier of ancient myth.

Speed queen

Article Abstract:

Aku Kadogo's new multimedia show, 'Frenzy,' is about the notion of speed. It was inspired by Indian writer Gita Mehta, who said Kalyug is characterized by speed, the enemy of reflection. Kadogo has wanted to collaborate with visual artist Fiona Foley to create an installation as the setting for a piece to be performed.
