TALK: Presenting the Yirrkala Drawings

Join Berndt Museum Associate Director, Professor Sandy Toussaint, Associate Registrar Kelly Rowe and Archivist Eve Chaloupka as they discuss the preparation of the works in the current exhibition Yirrkala Drawings at the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery.

An astonishing collection of crayon drawings on brown paper was first created by Yolngu artists in late 1940s north-east Arnhem Land.

Now part of the Berndt Collection of Australian Aboriginal cultural materials, this talk brings together insights from a museum perspective about the artworks and their history, conservation and presentation.
