Australian Aboriginal dot paintings at Bainbridge Library through November 2024
Jeffrey Moose Gallery is proud to announce an exhibition of dot paintings by indigenous artists from Yuendumu in Australia’s Central Desert at the Bainbridge Library, 1270 Madison Ave N . The show opened First Friday, November 1st from 6-8 PM. The exhibit runs through November. The artist’s group, Warlukurkangu Artists, is located in Yuendemu in Australia’s Central Desert, not far from Alice Springs and Uluru, AKA Ayers Rock. Several works by Yeundumu Artists are on display in The Seattle Art Museum’s third floor galleries. Dot paintings are images rendered from an aerial perspective that use symbols to represent people, animals, plants, weather systems and other forms to tell ancient creation stories. In their original form, these stories are part of the Song Lines, complex sets of story-poems recited in rhythmic patterns that link sacred places across the Australian continent.
