Klappentext

In "Streets of Papunya", Western Desert art expert Vivien Johnson reveals the remarkable art of the women painters of Papunya today, the rising stars of the town’s new Tjupi art centre. Some of the first women to join the original Papunya art movement, many of these artists are the daughters of the revolutionary Papunya Tula artists of the 1970s. Johnson unearths the whole history of Papunya as a site of art production: Albert Namatjira’s final paintings, executed in Papunya days before his death in 1959; Papunya’s glory days of the 1970s and ‘80s; ist dark time as the ‘carpetbagging capital of the desert‘; and ist inspirational resurgence as ist leading painters reinvent Papunya painting for the twenty-first century
