Norval Morrisseau expert tells court Indigenous painter's family were ‘critical to the success’ of rampant fakes.

"Cowan’s lawyers are presenting a case that his actions are not cultural appropriation because the Morrisseau children — the beneficiaries of his estate — themselves authenticated and promoted forged works for financial gain. The defence is also alleging representatives of the estate assisted in authenticating fake Morrisseaus and are benefiting from the proliferation of forgeries."

Norval Morrisseau (1931-2007), an icon of the Indigenous art movement in Canada, is recognized for his vibrant creations highlighting diverse cultural aspects of his people, while making powerful political statements that continue to inspire awe and admiration to this day.

After offering asemaa <tobacco>, I grabbed some red willow to make dreamcatchers.

I gotta wait a few weeks for them to dry before applying the sinew to actually weave the web part.

I was taught this from my late grandmother back then.

Getting into the swing of which bits of me and my life go on mastodon, this time by adding a profile image. Which leads me to this week's #OneCoolThing

An exhibition of Yolŋu people's art that I saw last year: Yolŋu power the art of Yirrkala

The website with information on the exhibition is still up, including images of lots of the artworks: https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/whats-on/exhibitions/yolngu-power/

The art is diverse and interesting, showing connection to country and people's stories. It was one of those exhibitions that stays with you. Not as good online, but still worth knowing about.

Context: the Yolŋu a people from coastal northern Australia. They are still strong in language and culture, despite two centuries of colonisation.

Many modern artists are Yolŋu, and they have us one of my favourite bands Yothu Yindi. A bonus cool thing - not into art? Check out this band instead. Perhaps making the one cool thing Yolŋu art in general rather than an exhibition :)

Jada's art work, one of several pieces that I was photographing yesterday. This piece illustrates the gathering of prickly pear, mounted on a moose shoulder blade #bone.

"With its proximity to Chinatown, the building’s 85-foot mural by local Indigenous artist Lance Cardinal bridges local Chinese and Indigenous cultures.

Titled The Land We Share, it depicts the 12 Chinese zodiac animals on its right and the seven First Nations sacred-teaching animals on its left."
