Course Description
Disciplines
Cultures & Societies of the World, Artistic, Interpretive, & Philosophical Inquiry
Located in Australia's tropical north, Arnhem Land has long been one of the epicenters of the modern Aboriginal art movement. The art of the region opens a window onto another world: a world in which ancestral spirits remain a constant presence in the land. Using the world-class holdings of the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection, we'll explore the art of Arnhem Land from 1911 to the present.
