murr-ma* Uncovering Aboriginal & Australian Contemporary Art * to walk through water searching with your feet
In Berlin throughout September & October the Sydney gallery Michael Reid at Elizabeth Bay will beholding Murr-ma, a significant exhibition of work by some of today’s most important established and emerging Aboriginal and Australian artists.
The Theme of Murr-ma - ‘gently feeling the way with one’s feet to search for shellfish at low tide in streams and mud flats’ - reflects the exhibition’s visual discussion of the concerns of Australian contemporary art.
Through a variety of techniques - from traditional oil painting to sculpture and photography - the artists offer interpretations of clan and individual identity and different depictions of the Land as topography, a symbol of national character and part of the cosmology of a people.
In addition to the exhibition, the gallery will also be attending the art fair Preview Berlin, held in mid September.
