Don’t Forget To See ‘Carrolup Revisited’: Closes 29th June

This is simply a reminder to go and see, if you can, the current exhibition of Carrolup child art, and more recent Noongar works, at the Berndt Museum’s exhibition at the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery at the University of Western Australia, Perth.

I am delighted to see the artworks up on the wall, most of which have not been previously exhibited. Two of the children’s school notebooks are on display, as well as a number of more recent works from the 1980s through to the present, all of which are inspired by the Carrolup style.

Please go and see the exhibition if you haven’t already. And thanks to the Director at the Berndt, Dr Vanessa Russ, and her staff, for mounting such a stimulating and beautiful exhibition.
