I had the pleasure of meeting Brisbane artist Vernon Ah Kee, who believes his graphic artworks and charcoal portraits (left) paint a more realistic picture of Aboriginality than dot paintings of the desert. To Ah Kee, such images portray a utopian, stereotypical view that is increasingly out-of-touch with how the vast majority of Aborigines live.
I also interviewed Jonathan Jones, considered one of the most distinctive Aboriginal artists to emerge in Australia over the past decade.
