Paris, 30 août 2012
From 9 October 2012 to 20 January 2013 the exhibition entitled “aux sources de l’aborigène” (at the roots of Aboriginal art) will take place at Quai Branly.
From 25 August to 7 September, the Galerie Pierrick Touchefeu will once again put in pride of place this civilisation considered as one of the most ancient in the world.
The following artists will be represented: Kathleen Petyarre, Ningura Napurrula, Judy Watson Napangardi, Emily Pwerle, Walangkura Napanangka, and Dorothy Napangardi. These artists are experts in Aboriginal art.
The Galerie Pierrick Touchefeu opened in 2005 in Sceaux (92), near the Château de Sceaux. It immediately decided to display both young artists and recognised artists without restricting itself to only one artistic medium.
So as to enable an exchange between artists belonging to different generations and different artistic movements, it ensures a moving and interactive scenography in its space.
Another of its specialty is the defence and promotion of Aboriginal art.
