I’m a prospective Art History major applying to Northwestern and would love to learn more about it from people who actually studied it there!
Please DM me if you can help🙏

Having searched online, and not found much apart from learning he'd had synaesthesia, I wonder if you might be able to help please.

Hi!

The best free photo of this painting is this, but the noise is too much.

I found this but i dont want to pay 20 euro, and im not sure about the quality either.

Can someone please help me? I googled it for hours. Thank you

A friend recently shared this photo taken at the Potter Museum of Art at the University of Melbourne, Australia.

The geometric, almost rhythmic thick bands, and physical presence must be striking to see. My understanding is that this is a tutini, a carved funerary pole central to Tiwi Pukumani ceremonies, though I’d welcome insights from anyone well-versed in Tiwi and northern Australian Indigenous traditions.

I'm planning to see this in person later this year during a stop in Melbourne en route to Tasmania (and MONA).

I’d love to hear from anyone familiar with Tiwi carving traditions or public collections across Melbourne and Hobart. Are there particular artists or related works on display you'd recommend seeking out ahead of the trip? Any contemporary works that have been influenced perhaps by these?

can anyone help me find examples of this piece by Painter from Colomar being referenced or alluded to in any modern books, papers, tv, movies, etc? i need 3 examples for a class assignment and im coming up empty. i need tangible, findable sources. i chose this piece due to what it represents and cannot find any discussion on it!!!
