Description
Japingka Gallery presents Rover Thomas and other senior Kimberley Ochre Painters, featuring older works by major East Kimberley artists using ochre pigments
Many of the featured artists in this exhibition have helped to set benchmarks for a new generation of painters to appreciate and aspire to. Major works by Rover Thomas evoke the raw experience of the Kimberley with the artist’s brush strokes and gestures all recorded in layers of ochre paint that are swept over the surface of the boards as he painted. Other leading artists from the time include Queenie McKenzie, Jack Britten, Henry Wambini, Beerbee Mungnari and Freddie Timms.
