This exhibition celebrates twenty-five years of fertile collaboration between the master Australian print-maker, Basil Hall, and aboriginal artists from across the whole range of Australia’s remote communities.
Often working in extremely difficult conditions, Hall has introduced many Aboriginal artists to the possibilities of print-making. Employing the full range of print-processes – etching, screen- printing, lino-cutting – Hall has enabled many Aboriginal artists to transform their visions into some of the most arresting and accomplished prints of the contemporary art-scene
