Even though Dot paintings were introduced to the indigenous by a white bloke Geoffrey Bardon in the 1970's. But dont let the truth get in the way of a good story.

@chriswatson7965 3 ай бұрын

This story must also be a myth because there are plenty of shields pre-dating that 1970s with the dot motif. What is certain is that large paintings on bark that are then sold off to markets outside is an invention of the 1970s. I'm not sure of the complete history but the site "Aboriginal Dot Painting: Evolution and History" is certainly more compatible with my personal observation of historical artwork that I have seen in public museums and art galleries.

@@chriswatson7965 Yes no one would deny the occasional dots in aboriginal ancient artwork, but unfortunately the truth is never told but adapted to modern society as fact.

@@mark703 My claim is that the claim that Bardon introduced the drawings to aboriginal society is equally misrepresentative. And it is not just the occasional dot, I'm talking full dot paintings on aboriginal shields that date to the 19th C that I have seen with my own eyes.

Dot painting existing for eons in Aboriginal culture as body paint and sand drawings. Because they weren't allowed to be viewed by uninitiated people, after completion they were washed off or smoothed over. In 1971. Geoffrey Bardon was assigned as an art teacher for the children of the Aboriginal people in Papunya, near Alice Springs. He encouraged the people to paint their designs on canvas for permanent display.
