This beautifully illustrated publication is the outstanding handbook of the Land Marks exhibition, staged to coincide with the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne. This publication examines important moments in the history of Indigenous art and acknowledges a succession of legendary figures who continue to inspire Indigenous artists today. Land Marks honours the great artists - serious painters and sculptors in ritual contexts, pioneers in the development of new art forms and warriors for social justice. This soft cover 144-page book features full colour plates, location map, essays by Judith Ryan, Senior Curator of Indigenous Art, and a special forward by the Director, Gerard Vaughan.
