The collection of Joelle and Pierre Clement includes Australian
painters whose work draws on Aboriginal culture and traditions.
This catalog by Kunsthaus Zug features 80 works by 50 artists from
the collection, as well as paintings by Emily Kame Kngwarreye. The
image and text contributions allow for an in-depth examination of
the color-intensive, supposedly abstract painting and shed light on
the diverse artistic positions as well as the different peoples and
regions of Central Australia. With their "dot paintings," the
painters translate their millennia-old culture between traditional
mythology and postcolonial reality into fascinating images created
for international viewers. The publication brings together 50
painters, including established names such as Kathleen Petyarre and
Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri, as well as lesser-known positions.
One focus is on the works of EMILY KAME KNGWARREYE (1910-1996).
The true story of a woman who loses four days of her life in March
1976 and, in 2010, following 34 years of terrifying nightmares she
decides to find out why. With the help of an experienced
psychologist she relives the events of 34 years ago and in doing so
discovers what happened to her business partner, Fred Handford.
Following treatment the nightmares she has suffered since the day
he disappeared - 19 March 1976 - stop completely and the truth is
finally revealed. www.thestrangerinmylife.co.uk
