Featured Art Work - Johnny W. Tjupurrula

Johnny Warrangkula has become known as the ‘Big J.W.’ In 1976, a painting by J.W. titled ‘Water Dreaming at Kalipinypa’ sold for a record $206,000. In 2000 another work by Johnny Warrangkula sold at Sotheby’s Auction house for $486,000, at the time a world record for an Aboriginal painting.
For a time between the late 1980’s until the mid 1990’s, Johnny produced few works due to poor eyesight resulting from Trachoma. However, after receiving treatment, Johnny’s enthusiasm for painting was rekindled, mainly driven by his desire to record his stories for future generations and to produce an income for his extended family.
In early 1997, Michael Hollow made a great effort to revive Johnny's painting career and commissioned him to do a series of small works. From this series Johnny began a new phase in his distinguished painting career and developed this new direction with other galleries and dealers over the next few years. This series, his final one, includes a range of small to very large dynamic, powerful paintings in pure red, blacks with white, yellow and ochre highlights. Each of the works features the established imagery of Johnny’s Dreamings overpainted to hide the secret and sacred elements. Our featured painting is number 2 from this series.

Indigenous Instyle is a fresh, stylish and secure online Aboriginal art gallery. Here we want to introduce you to the modern era of Aboriginal art and how this art will fit into your modern décor with ease.

The beauty of modern Aboriginal art is not only about the gorgeous colours painters are now using but also their unique methods. Beautiful movements have been captured to create a feeling of flow when some of the painitings are viewed while others transport you into a traditional story by their personal portrayal through images and texture.

Aboriginal art is gaining popularity throughout the world as a genre to collect for future investment. Countries like China, Vietnam and The Netherlands are buying the works profusely as the value of Aboriginal paintings is very well positioned in the global market.
The beauty of our modern indigenous art is that they blend well with modern décor and can make a wonderful statement alone or grouped on a wall. While adding visual beauty to a room they are also valuating, what more could you ask for in a painting?
