Contemporary Australian Aboriginal Painting by Kudditji Kngwarreye
-
Description
Entitled "My Country", this bold and abstract landscape painting was by renowned Australian aboriginal artist Kudditji Kngwarreye (1928-2017). Acrylic painting on canvas, it was painted in 2012 and signed and inscribed on verso. The saturated colors and the visible brush strokes and intentionally uneven earth-like textures invokes the view of a landscape, partially real, partially imaginary.
Kudditji Kngwarreye from the Utopia community in the Northern Territory. He was the skin brother of the late Emily Kame Kngwarreye and like his skin sister Emily, was one of the most prominent and successful artists in the history of contemporary indigenous Australian art. Kudditji began painting around 1986 and developed a signature style that is instantly recognizable by pure intuition. Highly abstract and in bold color blocks, he combined striking colors and spatial composition.
Provenance: a copy of COA from an art gallery in Australia. - More Information
