- Summary:
-
"'The Sculptures of Atauro Island' exhibition presents for the first time in Australia the unique and captivating sculptural tradition of Timor-Leste. This catalogue of the exhibition explores continuity and change in the wood-carving and sculptural traditions of Atauro Island. Despite the island's turbulent history, wood-carving skills continue to flourish on this remote island that lies across the Wetar Strait from Dili, Timor-Leste's capital city. Today, the sculptors of Atauro create distinctive and innovative, contemporary figures that builds on earlier, classic sculptural forms specific to Atauro Island. 'The Sculptures of Atauro Island' exhibition is presented by Charles Darwin University Art Gallery, Darwin, Australian in collaboration with Secretariat of State for Arts and Culture, Timor-Leste and Timor Aid."--Back cover.
