DA ACT at the Emily Exhibition


Dragons Abreast ACT was privileged on Sunday 7 September to view "Utopia: The genius of Emily Kame Kngwarreye" at the National Museum of Australia with Curator Margo Neale (a member of our team) giving us an insiders view of the exhibition and the massive logistics involved in getting these magnificent works to Japan, where 'Emily' is bigger than Andy Warhol!

Around 30 team members attended, with a special guest from DA Albury, Thelma Wright, who was in Canberra to complete the AusDBF officials course.
Margo is pictured with what she calls 'the boobs work', depicting body painting on breasts. Don't miss the exhibition, which is on until 12 October - http://www.nma.gov.au/
