Event: Sat 16 February - Sun 21 April 2013: Adelaide, SA
Exhibition: Good Strong Powerful
"In partnership with Arts Access Darwin,
this touring exhibition will showcase the extraordinary
works that have been produced through Art Centres
in the Northern Territory by established and
emerging Indigenous artists with disabilities."
"The exhibition includes artists from
Ngaruwanajirri on Bathurst (Tiwi) Island,
Mwerre Anthurre Artists, based at Bindi Inc. in Alice Springs
and Julalikari Arts in Tennant Creek."
"It is envisioned that this exhibition will work towards
raising the profile of artists who too often are
placed into a narrow 'art therapy' model,
yet their practice is often groundbreaking."
