ArtX Contemporary presents a diverse collection of paintings by Indigenous Australian painters, from established masters exhibited in Seattle Art Museum’s Ancestral Modern exhibition, to the next generation of emerging indigenous artists.

Utilizing contemporary mediums, these artists adapt visual languages that have evolved over centuries. The paintings appear abstract, but they are brimming with mythology, landscape and ancestral knowledge. Each painting is a connection to the living history of Indigenous Australian cultures. History merges with the present and future, and the ancient becomes contemporary.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are warned that this website/content may contain images and names of deceased persons.
