Colin and Elizabeth Laverty Collection Showcases Contemporary Aboriginal Painting from Remote Australia

The collection of Colin and Elizabeth Laverty features recent painting from Australia's remote Aboriginal communities. This body of work moves beyond traditional sacred iconography to explore contemporary expressions. The paintings originate from indigenous communities across Australia's remote regions. Colin and Elizabeth Laverty have assembled this significant collection of Aboriginal art. The artwork represents a shift in indigenous Australian painting practices during the contemporary period. These paintings demonstrate how Aboriginal artists from isolated areas are engaging with modern artistic developments while maintaining cultural connections. The collection highlights the evolution of indigenous visual culture in Australia. The Laverty collection was documented in 2009 through artcritical's coverage.
