Solidarity for Love: G'day from Aussie Minjung

澳洲地理維度上的對話橋樑

「新南島」不同於「南島語系」只討論語言或血緣上的源頭，它所涉及的還包括二十世紀「後殖民時期」與「全球資本主義化」所造成的人口遷徙與土地認同問題。而「亞澳 ‧ 新南島」展覽在探究的正是如何從當代藝術底下來思考「新南島民眾」的角色定義與藝術界定上的「主流」和「非主流」間之價值標準。我們是否可以透過模糊西方所界定的「疆界」後，來讓一般大眾從「展覽參與」中閱讀些什麼出來？又或者是找尋到一種不同於以往價值觀的文化生存力量。

關於此展覽「亞澳新南島」 ‧

Dr. En Young AHN, 崔綵珊

語言學者白樂思在 1985 年發表的文章中，提出臺灣是南島語族的起源地，文化的遷徙語言的散佈，從西元前三千年就已經開始。而這樣的移動在工業革命後則更為顯著，交通全面化的便捷配上全球資本主義的影響，「移民」與「溯源」似乎早已展開某種程度上的對話。高雄，台灣早期的工業重鎮，國際港口紀錄著城市發展與移工的生命過程，海港城所集結的移工，撐起了高雄城製造業的經濟發展。人口組成從清朝時期來臺開墾的先民，到二次大戰後國軍撤臺的「外省人」，與近十年大幅度增長的「新臺灣人」。這之中關於「移動」所產生的土地、身份認同與文化的融合或相異，幾乎是各國當代一直在探究的焦點之一。而類似的移民也出現在同為南島島嶼的澳洲國境內。當澳洲「新住民」試圖表示自己是「澳洲人」的同時，他人對其的「認同」或「排斥」就可能成為身份上劃定是否為「外來者」的界線。此外澳洲「原住民」在大量西方文化的主流入侵下，其「傳統藝術」之於「西方藝術」就成為另一層對照的狀態。類似的「衝突」與「融合」其實不斷地在南島語系中的國家上演，而「亞澳 ‧ 新南島」展覽在探究的正是如何從當代藝術底下來思考「民眾」角色的定義與藝術界定上的「主流」和「非主流」間的價值標準。我們是否可以透過模糊西方所界定的「疆界」後，讓一般大眾從中閱讀些什麼出來？又或者是找尋到一種不同於以往價值觀的生存力量。（一）「亞澳 ‧ 新南島」澳洲的多元主義奠基在市民關係模式的聯繫，並給予到澳洲這塊土地上的澳洲人表達自己的文化身分，並且在建構一個澳洲人的身分認同時能彼此合作。回溯歷史之脈絡，澳洲主要人口的構成大多來自歐洲的移民。因此澳大利亞的國族情感並非來自種族，而是歷史的共同記憶，以及在這座島嶼上共同的認同情感。移民特色將澳洲轉化為豐富文化的國家，也塑造開放、融合的國際形象。但當在地知識分子已試圖運用「亞洲時代」作為復興國家多元文化主義的品牌時，一些本地人士仍舊將亞洲視為他者，但許多亞洲人已經一部分融合為澳洲人。在澳洲現在已經有將近兩百萬人使用亞洲國家的語言，其中包括 65 萬的中國語系。土地在國家敘述和身分認同建構過程中是很重要的一環，甚至是召喚國家想像的一個象徵，因此本展覽並非強調多元文化的百花齊放，而是尋求地理維度上

的對話橋樑。「橋樑」如同連結，是關係的確立與再建立。如同拉岡（Jacques Lacan）解釋人自我形成的過程，認為利用「鏡」的概念區分你我，但更重要的是透過鏡像的凝視，得已看清自我與他者之間的關係。（二）異文化／對話獨特的多元文化形塑了澳大利亞，同時滋養本土藝術家創作，在作品中呈現獨特的本土藝術。因此本展覽計畫囊括七位本土藝術家以及四位分別具有英國、中國、哥倫比亞以及以色列移民背景的藝術家，試圖透過這些藝術家所呈現的作品勾勒出澳大利亞性別、家族角色與時代的多元性。同時也希望透過展覽帶出澳大利亞的原住民藝術在現代社會的角色。澳大利亞原住民藝術可謂傳統藝術世界淵源的其中一支脈絡。藝術在原住民社會中占有重要的角色，扮演著傳遞秘密、祖傳宗教或將自身傳統價值流傳世代等社會功能。當原住民從部落家族中親屬的連結與情感關係面臨當代市民社會的挑戰，藝術在部落社會的功能是否瓦解或轉化？本展覽計畫企圖回應澳大利亞原住民在後殖民社會 / 現代市民社會中，藝術的主體與角色轉化。（三）跨越疆界本展覽計畫的核心在於挑戰所謂的疆界，無論是有形與實體，如同國與國之間的國土邊界，亦或菁英與常民的美學價值。因此本次展覽希望塑造討論的空間，因而於受邀藝術家中，有五位受專業藝術教育背景出身的藝術家，隨同四位起於日常生活的常民藝術家。當丹托 (Arthur Danto) 提出藝術終結論，過往在現代主義美學之下無法被接受的藝術得以取得自己的論述空間。尤其本展覽所邀請的原住民藝術與常民美學，更是長久被排斥於主流藝術討論之外的對象。但這並非意謂藝術的停滯而是帶出藝術研究必須挑戰形式與物質性的課題的轉向。歷史文化脈絡與哲學形而上成為藝術概念實驗下的新路徑。但眼見挑戰長久在現代主義中心及歐美歷史發展下的美學概念的藝術走向，在資本主義市場的掌控下似乎是失敗的，藝術分裂成個人／菁英式藝術以及大眾／庸俗藝術的兩條路徑。從意識形態與商業模式操弄著藝術生產與品味，並將其轉化為經濟價值。為了重省專業與常民的藝術概念，這個展覽計畫希望能激起台灣民眾，了解自身能在藝術中成為行動者／參與者的力量，去對抗在菁英藝術及大眾文化生產體系裡被動的角色。

Solidarity for Love: G'day from Aussie Minjung Dr. En Young AHN

This exhibition illustrates how cultural diversity and multiculturalism have been a unique strength of Australian artistic creativity practice. Towards this aim, the exhibition includes five Australian indigenous artists and four artists with a migrant background (from England, China, Colombia and Israel), along with two bona-fide 'local' Australian artists. The exhibition's selection of the artists also reflects the diversity of Australians and Australian artists in terms of gender, family roles and age. Australian multiculturalism is based on a citizenship model of integration and has ensured the right of newly arrived 'Australians' to express their cultural identity and incorporate this identity into their own personal constructions of being Australian. Historically, migrants have made up a large component of the Australian population and the majority of this migration has come from Europe. However, there are now increasingly more Australians born in Asia and other parts of the world. According to the 2011 Census, the proportion of migrants born in Asia increased from 24% of the overseas-born population in 2001 to 33% in 2011. This new trend in migration patterns has transformed Australia into a more richly diverse society. While the country's elite opinion-makers are eager to utilize 'the Asian Century' in reinvigorating Australia's nation-building brand of multiculturalism, some Australians still think that Asia is something out there, wholly apart from them. Yet, a lot of Asia is in fact already a part of Australia. There are now more than two million speakers of Asian languages in Australia, including some 650,000 speakers of Chinese. The exhibition will also examine the institutional notion of 'art' and the 'professional artist'. In this regard, the exhibition will present four artists who straddle the boundary between amateur and professional, alongside the five established Australian indigenous artists. The art of Aboriginal Australia is one of the longest continuous traditions of art in the world, dating back at least fifty millennia. Art has played an important role in Aboriginal societies. This role has increased in significance in post-colonial Aboriginal societies. There is no exact equivalent for the Western term 'art' in any of the hundreds of Aboriginal language studied. Until the arrival of Europeans in Australia during the 18th century, Aboriginal art was made purely to fulfill traditional Aboriginal cultural needs, for example the transmission of secret and sacred ancestral or religious knowledge and values across generations. The selected four non-indigenous artists are case studies of the diversity artists and art practices in Australia – a county that despite its enviable economic wealth lacks an American style of philanthropic tradition – who strive to find various ways to combine work and artistic life. They have a serious commitment to their art, regardless of the fact that their work is not the main source of income or that they have not yet been formally recognized as an 'artist' by the 'art world' (defined by Arthur Danto and George Dickie). They will provide Taiwan audiences with a glimpse into different

strategies of surviving as an 'artist' in an increasingly ďŹ ercely competitive, globalised art world, while balancing their art practice and other aspects of life such as social and family commitments. The selection of artists for this exhibition is designed to challenge the notion of 'art' that has evolved predominately in the context of a modernism-centered EuroAmerican historical development of aesthetic perception and appreciation. Under capitalist conditions, art practice can be divided into a cultural/individual/professional art and a populist or vernacular/anonymous/non-professional art, and is further divided either into artists or consumers. For ideological and economic reasons, capitalism discriminates both artistic production and tastes. Capitalism translates the scarcity and novelty of the artworks produced by distinguished individuals who can devote themselves professionally to art into a questionably subjective economic value, while equating the artistic creations by 'minjung' (people) merely as amateur hobbies, to ensure the highest achievable profits. Minjung, which is generally translated as 'people', has certain political connotations of the grass roots, the oppressed or marginalised people. This exhibition has chosen diverse 11 artists to represent Australian minjung, in order to highlight the under-recognised ordinary peoples' creative contribution to a country in its making of a modern nation, in contrast to the characterisations of ordinary people as the quantitative, de-personalised passive mass. The current 'liberal' capitalist conditions have galvanised rather than weakened the pre-modern, undemocratic monopoly of art by the minority elites. By disrupting the institutional concepts of 'professional' and 'amateur', the proposed exhibition hopes to encourage Taiwan minjung to recognise themselves as an active participant in artistic activities, while resisting the elitist categorisation of the passive target consumer group of the popular culture industry. The selection of the artists is also designed to challenge the concept of 'an emerging artist'. This exhibition will illustrate that 'emerging' is a very relative term. For example, Dganit Kedair can be regarded as an emerging artist in her 50s. The curatorial rationale of the proposed exhibition is designed to spark a series of debates among Taiwan audiences on the deďŹ nitions of 'native', 'local' and 'artist', as demonstrated by the wide variety of artworks chosen for the exhibition. We hope that one outcome of this will be to generate further meaningful cross-cultural dialogues and exchanges between Australia and Taiwan. Special Thanks I would like to express a special thanks to Mr. Edwin Easydorchik, an Australian artist and a retired Professor of the New Castle University, New South Wales, for his generous help without which I could have not managed the shipment of the artworks on time.

David BRAZIL Brazil 是一名以 Blue Mountains 為活動基地的攝影家，1966 年出生於坎培拉。打從拿起父親的德製相機 Rolleiflex 那一刻起，就開啟他長達三十年對攝影的長久熱情。他曾在雪梨大學學習攝影，並在 1990 年代早期在當時新成立的《綠色左翼週刊》擔任志工，拍攝雪梨街頭的抗議人士和樹林中的抗議營，同時也負責管理該週刊的暗房。他一邊在大學裡兼職教平面設計和多媒體，一面仍對攝影保持著強烈而堅持的熱情。他的教學也讓他與其他藝術家保持聯繫，並維繫他對藝術的興趣，特別是攝影。 2012 年初，Brazil 獲選參加 Magnum 工作坊並與當時知名的法籍攝影師 Antoine d'Agata 一起工作，這是他人生的轉捩點，同時也讓他的攝影作品邁向下一個階段。 Brazil 希望以攝影作為自己的生活中心，但這份熱情必須不斷和日常生活的現實協商，也就是他身為有一個小女兒的單親爸爸和必須照顧孤寡父親的兒子，還有和憂鬱症與焦慮症的奮鬥。在這次展覽中，Brazil 從 The Upper Reaches 系列創作中選出 28 張攝影作品。這系列創作是用 iPhone 記錄他在 Blue Mountains 的日常生活，這個地方在他生命階段中具有重要含意。The Upper Reaches 是這名藝術家的視覺日記，紀錄他在悼念母親時的行動、心情和觀察。當他四處走動、採買，帶小女兒上學，或是做些生活例行事務時，他就拍下照片。這些照片除了透過他身為藝術家的眼睛，在生命中的特定時刻訴說著他居住的地方背後的故事，也是一扇扇窗戶，讓觀眾可以看到一個外人通常看不到或不瞭解的獨特社群。Brazil 鏡頭下的塗鴉、火車月台上的雨的形狀、小孩的遊樂器材或是垃圾桶上一個被霜覆蓋的輪子，都是要表達他在日常生活中發現的美與啟發。其中一些看似「家常」的影像不只詭奇地充滿情緒，又同時拒絕被以表面上的明顯意涵來理解。

Brazil is a photographic artist based in the Blue Mountains. Brazil was born in Canberra in 1966. He has had an abiding passion for photography for over thirty years since first picking up his father's German camera Rolleiflex. He studied photography at Sydney University's Tin Sheds and Canberra School of Art. In the early 90s, he volunteered with the newly formed Green Left Weekly, covering rallies on the streets of Sydney and bush protest camps as well as running the paper's darkroom. Some years later, after returning from 3 years in Europe, he went on to complete further studies in Photography at Sydney Institute of Technology and set up a studio with a fellow photographer in Redfern. Photography has been a strong and constant passion, while working as a p art-time teacher in graphic design and multimedia at universities and TAFE colleges. His teaching has kept him to continuously engage with other artists and stay in touch with his artistic interest, especially photography. Early 2012, Brazil was selected to participate in a Magnum Workshop with the renowned French photographer Antoine d'Agata (1961-) as part of the “FotoFreo 2012: The City of Fremantle Festival of Photography”. This was a life-changing opportunity for him and helped him to take his photography to the next level. Brazil hopes to place his photographic practice at the core of his life.

However, he has constantly needed to negotiate this desire with his everyday realities as a single father of a young daughter and a carer for his widowed ailing father, coupled with his own battle with depression and anxiety. For the proposed exhibition, Brazil will contribute a selection of 28 phototropic works from The Upper Reaches, his 'ﬁrst' exhibition in Sydney in June this year. By using an iPhone he photographed the everyday life in the Blue Mountains, the place that has a personal significance at a particular stage of his life. Each image is displayed as it was captured on the iPhone camera – no retouching or cropping or Photoshop. The Upper Reaches is a visual diary of the artist's movements, moods and observations during his grieving over the loss of his mother. He took photos as he was walking around, shopping, taking his daughter to school, doing other daily routines. It also tells an insider's story about the place the artist lives. The story is told through the artist's eyes, at a particular moment in his life, but it is also a window into a unique community that is not always seen or understood by the visitor. Brazil's photographic images of grafﬁti, the pattern of rain on a train platform, children's play equipment and the frost covered-wheel of a garbage bin are to convey the beauty and inspiration which he found in the everyday. Some of these homely images are uncannily moody but resist the obvious interpretations of their meanings.

Andres CAYCEDO Caycedo 是哥倫比亞裔的澳洲男性藝術家，1968 年出生於哥倫比亞，並於 1998 年開始在澳洲生活。他已經有二十年的創作資歷，以繪畫創作與數位藝術創作為主。2011 年時他進入 Gymea TAFE 的三年制陶瓷創作班。Caycedo 一直對陶瓷創作感興趣，而這些課程也幫助他獲得發展與實踐自己藝術創作的深度知識。 Reversed Garbage Excited Pet 這件作品蛻變自一門課堂創作，他在那堂課學到鑄模版和組裝的技巧。他喜歡用日常生活的廢棄物如塑膠罐、壞掉的燈泡和被扔棄的塑膠玩具來製作模版進行創作。

Caycedo is a Colombian-Australian male artist. Caycedo was born in 1968 in Colombia. He has lived in Australia since 1998. He has been making art for about 20 years .

In 2011, he enrolled in a 3 year Diploma of Ceramics at Gymea TAFE. He had been always interested in ceramics and this course is providing him with the depth of knowledge that he needs to develop his art practice. Reversed Garbage Excited Pet is evolved from a class project where he leant about slip casting and assemblage. He is interested in making moulds of discarded everyday objects like plastic containers, used light bulbs, and discarded plastic toys.

Will COLES

Coles 是個雕塑家、街頭藝術家及「自由的歐洲人」，目前主要活動於雪梨。

出生於 Warwickshire 的他是在 Suffolk 鄉間長大，在搬到雪梨之前曾在倫敦及 Glasgow 待了幾年。他的祖父 Norman Sillman 也是一名雕塑家，所以 Coles 在成長過程中很容易接觸到現代與古典藝術及藝術理論。他曾就讀於雷文斯本藝術學院、溫布爾登藝術學院和格拉斯哥藝術學院接受正規藝術教育。一般而言，他在雕塑形體的創作時常只以肢幹來表現，有時只有一或兩個肢體，或一個肢體來表現建築式的增長。他喜愛的藝術時期、人物和概念包括古希臘、西非、米開朗基羅、日本浮世繪、中國書法、摩爾、羅丹、街頭藝術等等，這些都形塑了 Coles 的創作風格。

Coles is a sculptor, street artist and'freelance European', based in Sydney. Born in Warwickshire, he grew up in the Suffolk countryside and spent several years in London and Glasgow before moving to Sydney, Australia. His grandfather, Norman Sillman, is a sculptor and he had easy access to modern and classical art and art theory when he was growing up. For his formal art training he went to Ravensbourne College of Art, Wimbledon School of Art and Glasgow School of Art. Generally when he sculpt ﬁgures they are usually

reduced to torsos, sometimes with a limb or two, or with a mechanical or architectural growth where a limb generally projects. These can be considered more classical, conservative or old school depending on people's views of modern art. Some of his favourite periods, people and concepts in art history include Ancient Greek, West African, Michelangelo, Japanese Ukiyo-e, Chinese calligraphy, Moore, Rodin, street art, Goldsworthy, McCullin, Rothko, HamiltonFinlay, Richier. These interests have shaped his art work.

Sara HELLSING Hellsing 是一位新銳女性玻璃藝術家。1987 年出生於坎培拉，除了在八歲那年在英國和瑞典待了一年之外，她在在那裡一直生活至今。對她而言，用玻璃來創作才是重點，而非雕塑。她喜歡探討人們收集或喜愛的物件之中所蘊含的意義。這些物件帶著過去擁有者們留下的痕跡，變成故事與記憶的容器。這些物件提供了那些不在場的人們與地方之間的聯繫。

Hellsing is an emerging female glass artist. She was born in Canberra in 1987. She has lived in Canberra all her life, except a year spent in England and Sweden when she was 8. Creating artworks in glass is her focus, rather than creating sculptures. She is interested in the meaning embedded within the objects people collect or hold dear. Carrying traces of their former owners with them, these objects become containers for story and memory. They provide a physical connection to absent people and act as placeholders in their stead.

Adam HILL

Hill 出生於 1970 年，居住在雪梨，是一位多才多藝的澳大利亞原住民畫家、攝影師、平面設計師、插畫家、Didgeridoo 演奏家和教育家。在 Hill 的創作主題裡常不斷省思所謂真實性以及它在當代原住民社會的意義價值，雖然他較以畫家身份廣為人知，但其作品實際上非常廣泛，包括雕塑，攝影及社區藝術等等。 Hill 曾獲新南威爾士州議會原住民藝術獎，Telstra 國家原住民藝術獎及懷恩獎，並連續入圍 MIL-PRA 獎。他的公共藝術作品更出現在澳洲的學校、地方議會建築，以及大型商場等地方，他同時也繪製童書繪本。過去十年中，他有 14 次個展與多次受邀參與慈善展覽。他的作品目前被 AIATSIS、雪梨議會、藝術銀行、新南威爾士州議會、澳大利亞國家美術館和國際私人所收藏。

Adam Hill (aka the Black Douglas, born in 1970) is an accomplished Indigenous Australian painter, photographer, graphic designer, illustrator, Didgeridoo performer and educator, based in Sydney. He is best known for the powerful art works in which he engages in direct conflict with the current Australian political situation. A constantly recurring theme in his work is the idea of authenticity and what it means in contemporary Aboriginal society. Adam HILL is known mainly as a painter, but his oeuvre is very broad, including sculpture, photography and community art projects. Hill is a multi award winner in the medium of acrylic on canvas, a continual finalist in the Mil-Pra Award, Parliament of NSW Aboriginal Art Prize, the Telstra National Indigenous Art Award and recently the Wynne Prize. Hill's public artworks have adorned the walls of schools, council structures, shopping malls, banners and flower beds. He has also illustrated several publications including the 2009 books Curly & the Fent by Sally Morgan and Children. Over the past decade, He has staged more than 14 solo exhibitions

and many group, invitational and charity exhibitions. He is currently represented in Melbourne and Sydney and has works collected by AIATSIS, City of Sydney Councils, Art Bank, NSW Parliament, the National Gallery of Australia and international private collections.

Dganit KEDAIR Kedair 出生於 1962 年，是一名以色列裔澳洲藝術家，同時也是兩位孩子的母親。她過去從事的職業一直與手工活動有關，如園藝家，庭院設計家或是住宅翻新家。 2011 年她取得了陶瓷創作文憑。除了在 28 年前曾上過一門珠寶課之外，她和藝術的關係總是作為一名熱情的觀察者，常參觀畫廊與展覽。如今她相信自己找到一條正確的路。甘地像這個作品是發展自她的第一份雕塑課作業。自從讀了甘地的自傳之後，甘地的生命故事和他所代表的意義讓她留下深刻印象。而她近期到澳洲中部 Uluru（也被稱為 Ayers Rock）這個地方的旅行，也是軀體的顏色和形狀的靈感來源。

Kedair was born in1962. She is an Israeli-Australian artist and a mother of two children. Her career path over the years has always involved manual activities such as being a gardener, garden designer and home renovator. In 2011 she commenced the Diploma in Ceramics. Apart from a jewellery course 28 years ago, her involvement with art was as an enthusiastic observer, visiting galleries and exhibitions. She believes that she has found the right path. Gandhi was developed from her ﬁrst class exercise in sculpting busts. Ever since reading An Autobiography or the Story of My Experiments with Truth by M.K. Gandhi, she was deeply impressed by the life story of this man and what he stands for.

Tilau NANGALA 所在社群：Papunya 出生於 1933 年的 Nangala 是一位資深女律師，在 Papunya 社群中非常受人敬重，她為 Papunya Tjupi 藝術中心作畫，並教導兩個女兒及孫女們創作。她多數畫作是在描繪父親的故鄉，那是位於 Yuendemu 西部的水之夢地（water dreaming site）。 Nangala 從未上過學，孩童時期在森林中度過。當她們全家搬到 Papunya 居住的時候，她已經結婚並育有兩個女兒了。自那之後她一直住在 Papunya，起先在醫院工作，後來則到學校，把她對舞蹈的熱愛傳給下一代的孩子們。身為一名資深律師，她對家園和慶典的熱愛，讓她大膽如詩歌般具表現力的繪畫作品描繪出有如流水般感覺的山川和溪谷景色。她從父親那兒繼承到的 Mikantji 水之夢地幾乎是她作品永遠的主題。她表示，她的阿姨教她認識文化和傳說，但她自行發展出用繪畫描繪它們的方式。她之所以要畫畫，是因為「這樣孩子們就可以看著我畫並學習，我才能把我的夢之地和故事傳承給孫子。 Papunya 是我母親兄弟們的家園。」

Country: Mikantji. Community: Papunya Indigenous Language Groups: Luritja and Warlpiri Tilau is a senior law woman and respected elder in the Papunya community, where she paints for Papunya Tjupi Art Centre and has taught both her daughters and granddaughters to paint. Many of her paintings depict her father country, a water dreaming site to the west of Yuendemu. Tilau Nangala was born c. 1933 at Haasts Bluff of Ngaliya/Warlpiri parents. Tilau never attended school - during her childhood the family still lived in the bush, supplementing their diet of bush tucker with supplies collected from

Haasts Bluff ration depot. When the family came across from Haasts Bluff to Papunya in the first days of the settlement, Tilau was already married, with two young daughters. Two more daughters and a son were born in Papunya. Ever since, Tilau has lived at Papunya, where she worked in the Papunya Hospital, in the old Papunya communal kitchen and more recently in the Papunya School, passing on her love of dancing to the children. As a senior law woman, her deeply felt knowledge of country and ceremony empowers her bold lyrical and expressive paintings depicting the topography of hills and creeks that create the feeling of flowing water. The great Water Dreaming site of Mikantji she inherited from her father is nearly always her subject. She says her auntie taught her culture and stories but she developed her own ideas on how to paint it. She paints 'so the children can watch me paint and learn, so I can pass on my Dreaming and stories to my grandchildren. Papunya is my mother's brother's country'. In the past, Tilau was a prodigious carver of coolamons and clap sticks and maker of ininiti seed necklaces, but these days she mainly paints - and has also produced prints with Cicada Press College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales.

Beyula Puntungka NAPANANGKA 所在社群：Papunya Tjupi Napanangka 在 1966 年出生於澳洲中部的 Papunya，是 Papunya Tjupi 最資深而堅持不懈的藝術家之一。她是 Papunya Tula 先鋒畫家 Limpi Tjapangati 的女兒。當她還是個小女孩的時候，就觀察父親作畫，並在紙板上練習畫畫。她和四個姐妹從父親那裡繼承了 Mereenie Range 這塊土地，她時常在畫中描繪這個地方。她也從祖母那聽到 Kali Karringpa 森林大火的故事。

Napanangka 靠著觀察父親來學習作畫，並和他一樣在繪畫上具著鮮明的風格。過去六年來，Napanangka 的繪畫和版畫都有著顯著的發展，近年她以祖父告訴她的銀樺樹之夢的故事作為繪畫主題。Napanangka 總是說，她創作是因為她享受繪畫與素描所帶來的愉悅。

Community: Papunya Tjupi Language: Luritja Beyula was born in Papunya in 1966, a small community west of Alice Springs in central Australia. She has been exhibiting with Papunya Tjupi Arts since the art centre's first exhibition in 2007. She is one of Papunya Tjupi's most senior and consistent artists. She had her first two-woman show at Mossenson Gallery in Melbourne in 2013. She is the daughter of pioneer 'Papunya Tula' painter Limpi Tjapangati, whom she observed painting as a young girl, later practising for herself on cardboard. Beyula grew up in Papunya, attending the local primary school, where she completed Year 6. Later the family moved to Haasts Bluff where they remained until Limpi died in 1985. Beyula moved back to Papunya and married her first husband, with whom she had two daughters. After Lindsay's death, Beyula married Bob Dixon, who was a father to her two girls. They now have three grandchildren. From their father Beyula and her four sisters inherited rights to the country near Mereenie Range which Beyula often depicts in her paintings. She also inherited a bush fire story Kali Karringpa from her grandmother. Her mother's Dreaming Place was the Dingo Dreaming site of Nyumanu near Kintore. Beyula learnt to paint from watching her father, and like him she has a distinctive style. At Haasts Bluff she practised on cardboard, first painting commercially for Warumpi Arts. Over the past six years, Beyula's painting and print-making have developed dramatically. These days Beyula paints her own dramatic version of the Honey Grevillea Dreaming story inherited from her grandfather. The works' strength lies in the abstracted organic lines that forms an immersive space where the viewer can feel and see the grevillea all at once. The artist, however, says she paints because she simply enjoys drawing and painting.

Susan Nakamarra NELSON Nelson 是一位資深原住民女性藝術家，也是一位 Waramungu/Walmanpa 族的長者，住在澳洲北部的 Tennant Creek。她還是個小女孩的時候，在一個小天主教學校開始學習用壓克力顏料作畫，當時有一名教士把基督教故事的著色畫發給小朋友們著色並學習聖經故事，她對繪畫的熱愛和對聖經故事的著迷就從這時開始。每週三和週日晚上，她會帶著這些畫到教堂和大家分享，並站在大家前面把畫中故事唱給信眾聽。現在她有三個孫女，四隻狗與一隻貓，仍然是每天作畫。

Susan Nakamarra Nelson is a senior Indigenous female artist and Waramungu/ Walmanpa elder who lives in Tennant Creek in the Northern Territory. She was born just north of there at Banka Banka station, when the last soldiers were moving out, sometime after the end of WWII. Banka Banka is her country. She has three grandchildren, four dogs and one cat. Susan first learnt to paint acrylic in the small mission school just outside of Alice Springs where she spent her years as a young girl. Pastor Long gave the children their posters depicting Christian scenes in basic outline. The illustrations were coloured in by the children who thereby learnt the story of the Bible pictorially. Here began Susan's love of paint and fascination with God's story. Every Wednesday and Sunday night in Tennant Creek, Susan takes these paintings to church for sharing. Here she stands out front with one or several rolled canvases, whose story she sings out to the congregation, sometimes with great theatrics. Sharing paintings are often completed in haste - taken home from the studio to be finished in her Mulga Camp home “just in time for night service. Sharings happen in town too, on the way to or from church, when pictures might be unfurled outside Foodbarn or Post Office for an inquiring mob of people.” Group Exhibitions 2012 Sydney Twenty years on – Paul Keating's Redfern Park Speech, Damien Minton Gallery, Sydney 2011 Desert Mob, Araluen Gallery, Alice Springs 2010 Desert Mob, Araluen Gallery, Alice Springs 2000 Desert Mob, Araluen Centre, Alice Springs 2009 Desert Mob, Araluen Centre, Alice Springs
