What is important to understand about Aboriginal art works?
Since white settlement and especially since the 1970’s many Indigenous artists have created art works for both cultural purposes and for sale within the art market. In the past there was no indigenous word for art and objects made by indigenous peoples were used for a wide range of cultural purposes. Brainstorm with other students to reveal your knowledge about Aboriginal art and culture and record this on the interactive whiteboard (IWB), computers, tablets or in your visual diaries. Compare your initial understanding now and at the end of this study. Develop a system to record your understanding and knowledge as part of your own evaluation.
