This book is an excellent and informative source for anyone interested in Aboriginal Art. It has inspired us to produce several aboriginal-style paintings!
Lovely little paper back book about Australian ArtDecember 20, 2004 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I bought this book for my son as a reference guide for his GCSE Art. The original at school had been knicked as it was so popular.
He produced a Brilliant piece of work inspired by it's content and pictures. He used ther inspiration from the art to produce a map from his home to school in the style of the Aboriginees on a massive pot from B&Q.
If you want a great little book on the subject then buy this.
An essential primerJune 19, 2001 23 out of 24 found this review helpful
I bought a copy of this last year to read before a trip to Australia. I knew very little about Aborigine art but this is an excellent introduction to this fascinating culture with such a vast and powerful art history.
Coverage is given to the various regions of Australia, pointing out differing cultures, environments, subject matter, styles and techniques. I was also pleased to discover it gave coverage not just to the traditional arts but also to more contemporary works, pointing out both the continuations and differences.
