Abstract
For students of Australian art and art collectors around the globe, Arnhem Land is synonymous with bark painting: sheets of tree bark carefully prepared as a canvas for painting by Aboriginal artists.
Bark painters such as John Mawurndjul and Yirawala are some of the most internationally renowned and sought-after Australian artists.
