Julie Dowling, Fiona Foley and Dianne Jones feature in the current exhibition I AM: Aboriginal art from the State Art Collection at Art Gallery of WA. Curator of Indigenous Art Carly Lane notes that “I AM is an exhibition about identity and personhood. How we know ourselves, how we make sense of the world around us, and how we navigate the two is the overarching theme of the show”. Further details below.
Julie Dowling’s work also features in the exhibition Nyini Woka (My Place) at Shepparton Art Museum. The exhibition brings together artworks from the Carrillo and Ziyin Gantner Indigenous Art Collection and recent works by contemporary Yorta Yorta artists. Spanning an array of creative practices and stories from across the vast continent, Nyini Woka (My Place) explores what it means to be here, today, on Yorta Yorta Country and beyond.
In addition, a monoprint by Julie Dowling features in the upcoming exhibition MOTHER at the National Gallery of Victoria. Traversing geographies, cultures and mediums, MOTHER presents diverse stories drawn from across the NGV Collection.
