2007 National Indigenous Art Triennial

Art Gallery of South Australia

Friday 20 June 2008 to Sunday 31 August 2008
The Art Gallery of South Australia is delighted to showcase the inaugural National Indigenous Art Triennial. Traveling from the National Gallery of Australia, Culture Warriors provides a highly considered snapshot of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander contemporary art practice.

The work of thirty artists has been selected, representing the diversity of regions around Australia and demonstrating the incredible range of contemporary Indigenous art practice. Works selected for the Triennial have been created within the past three years and include painting on canvas and bark, sculpture, weaving, new media, photo-media, printmaking and installation.
