(The advertised 2012 Far West Emerging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Prize exhibition also scheduled has unfortunately been delayed until 2013.)
It sounds a really fabulous exhibition. My brief contact with Jordan Kowalski who has provided this lovely image below has really made me wish I was up in Broken Hill again but unfortunately I am in Melbourne so I won’t be able to make the trip. Please be my eyes and tell me how you found the exhibition.
