    Scans source: Judith Ryan et Philip Batty - Aux sources de la peinture aborigène. Australie, Tjukurrtjanu. textes de John Kean, R. G. (Dick) Kimber, Fred Myers Luke Scholes et Paul Sweeney. Somogy Editions d'Art / Musée du quai Branly , Paris, 2012.

    By transposing to recycled wooden panels the motifs employed in ephemeral ritual paintings, the Aborigine artists of Papunya created an astonishingly inventive formal art, saturated with meaning. These works change the manner of understanding the territory and conceiving the history of Australian art.
    The works of the Papunya Tula movement have their iconographic source in the living tradition of the Aborigines of the central desert: ancestral designs on the shields, flint knives, headbands, ephemeral paintings on the ground and paintings of body art.
