National Talk Black 260424

On todays National Talk Black via NIRS – National Indigenous Radio Service we have:

Thomas E.S. Kelly, choreographer for Karul Projects – Silence, talking about how he has crafted this show to advocate for the establishment of a Treaty. Karul Project’s SILENCE pulls the Treaty conversation out from under the rug and slams it back on the table. With thrashing live drumming and a raw aesthetic, Thomas E.S. Kelly combines intimate storytelling with significant moments in Australian history bringing an unresolved conversation to a new generation. Silence will be taking on His Majesty’s Theatre (Perth), 1 – 2 May and Sydney Opera House 8 – 11 May. Check out more information and tickets below!

Tina Baum, Curator of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art, talking about Ever Present: First Peoples Art of Australia coming to National Gallery following its international tour. Following a successful international tour of the Asia Pacific region, the National Gallery of Australia will present Ever Present: First Peoples Art of Australia – an exhibition which celebrates First Nations art and provides a visual dialogue of Australia’s complex histories. Ever Present is a celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art that also explores Australia’s complex histories. The works challenge stereotypes about First Nations people and what defines their art.
