9 Oct – 28 Nov 2021
This year Kaltjiti Arts marks 60 years as an art centre in Kaltjiti/Fregon, in the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands. Across the Generations celebrates the skill, creativity and storytelling of the original Kaltjiti artists and today’s award-winning artists, their descendants. The exhibition includes historical and contemporary works, showing the family ties between past and present artists that have spanned six decades and highlighting the stories that have been passed on through the generations. Works on display include paintings, batik, punu (woodwork) and tjanpi (grass) woven baskets.
