CARRIAGEWORKS PRESENTS SOUTHEAST ABORIGINAL ARTS MARKET ‘ONLINE’

Carriageworks, Australia’s largest contemporary multi-arts centre, will present its fourth annual edition of the SOUTHEAST Aboriginal Arts Market over four days from 5pm 26 until 29 November 2020. Curated by respected Arrernte and Kalkadoon curator, writer, advisor and presenter Hetti Perkins and leading Wiradjuri and Kamilaroi artist Jonathan Jones, SOUTHEAST celebrates the creative diversity of south-east Australian Aboriginal art. This year, due to COVID-19 restrictions on large gatherings and border closures, in place of a physical market Carriageworks will present an online retail platform bringing together 26 independent Aboriginal artists and collectives from the south-east including regional and coastal New South Wales, ACT, southern Victoria, the Murray–Darling basin catchment and Tasmania.
