15 nov 1972 - Papunya Tula

Description:

In 1971, a group of Aboriginal artists from the government settlement at Papunya began painting traditional designs using acrylic paints and small boards.

This was the beginning of the Western Desert art movement that has become one of Australia’s most recognisable art forms and which led to the formation of the first Aboriginal arts business, Papunya Tula Artists cooperative, in 1972.
