We’ve had a week of indigenous art activism at the BVRG, courtesy of Melbourne/nee Geraldton WA artist Brian McKinnon (a seriously cool and interesting dude – we’ll be getting him back, for sure)…
and a return visit from Armidale artist Michael Brogan…
It’s been a continuation of The New Black: take 2 program, aimed at encouraging local indigenous artists to consider their work in terms of a contemporary social context (as opposed to churning out ‘tourist art’.)
More of The New Black: take 2 exhibition next week.
Meanwhile we put Michael on the plane at Sparrows Fart this morning (6.30 am), bringing to an end a week of serial lunching…
Time to hit the diet again.
