About this event

Join ANU Art Collection Curator Oscar Capezio and Emeritus Professor Howard Morphy for a guided tour exploring a selection of visually striking and culturally significant paintings from Northeast Arnhem Land. 

Discover the rich tradition of Yolngu bark painting through works by Narritjin Maymuru and his son Banapana Maymuru, who in 1978 became the first First Nations H.C. Coombs Creative Arts Fellows at ANU. Drawing on his expertise as curator, Oscar will share insights into the artists and their works. 

ANU is custodian of one of the finest and most wide-ranging collections of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art held by any Australian university. The collection reflects the creativity, cultural knowledge and enduring traditions of Australia's First Nations Peoples.  

Presented by the ANU First Nations Portfolio and Drill Hall Gallery, this tour offers a rare opportunity to experience highlights from the ANU Art Collection and explore the richness and diversity of First Nations artistic practice.
