ReDot Fine Art Gallery is very proud to launch 28 exquisite works on paper from the estate of Janangoo Butcher Cherel, many of which have never been seen before in public, in conjunction with Mangkaja Arts Resources Agency.
Butcher whom joined the community art centre in the early 1990s, worked closely with the founding art coordinator Karen Dayman and was introduced to Arches paper, a medium ideally suited to his artistic practice which has served to distinguish Mangkaja work of the 1990s from that of other Kimberley and Western Desert art centres.
Enjoy this tightly curated selection by Lynley Nargoodah, which is of the highest international standards. Butcher was an artist's artist who eschewed the notion of painting to a formula or revisiting previous successes.
LANDSCAPES OF MEMORY - The Art of Janangoo Butcher Cherel, encapsulates the rich cultural heritage, vibrant storytelling, and artistic spirit that this gentle man bought to the Indigenous art movement up until his passing in 2009.
"with my eyes, my heart and with my brain I am thinking. When I go to sleep nighttime, I might talk to myself 'ah, I might do (paint) that one tomorrow,' not dreaming; I think about what to do next."
Delve into this very special show, and join us in celebrating a central figure in the Modern Indigenous Art Movement.
