If you've been trying to call us over the last days and can't get through it's not because we still use our 1980s Commander system from Telecom Tim. The whole region is experiencing intermittent faults. Sorry 🙏

Get • Galay Ga Dhuway - Husband and Wife
Showing until 10 October

This exhibition of three husband-wife duos foregrounds the distinct artistic achievements of each individual, while sensitively acknowledging their connection, and the role of balance played within Yolŋu partnerships.

Exhibiting artists:
Djambawa Marawili AM & Liyawaday Wirrpanda
Gunybi Ganambarr & Lamangirra Gumana
Garawan Wanambi & Manini Gumana
In association with

"A person from the Yirritja half of reality (moiety) must marry someone from the Dhuwa side
[...]
Whilst Djambawa paints fire crocodiles and lightning, Liyawaday paints butterflies, floodplains and brolgas. Gunybi's metal works draw on the rippling patterns of water-goannas splashing within the spring fringed by rushes. Lamangirra focusses on the ragged chop of the wind- driven waves as they hit the shore of Grindall Bay. Garawan paints the artesian water spilling out of the memorial pole placed over the font at low tide. His wife Manini shares a fascination with pastel-toned ochre admixtures but in a different palette and with a completely different narrative."

We share in the joy and celebration of the achievement of the multi award winning Merrkiyawuy Ganambarr Djawa Burarrwaŋa, Ms D Maymuru and Leonie Norrington for winning the Prime Minister’s Literary award for their insightful novel ‘a ‘Piece of Red Cloth’ it’s a must read! Congratulations!!

Many of our artists are descendants of members of the Northern Territory Special Reconnaissance Unit or people who suffered Japanese bombing during this time or are current members of Norforce themselves• Crowds gathered at Melbourne’s Shrine of Remembrance to recognise the contributions of Indigenous Australians who served and supported the defence of the nation and the home front during World War II between 1942 and 1945.
Congratulations Wanapati Yunupiŋu, who is a finalist in the inaugural Artbank Prize 2026.

Wanapati was selected as one of just eight finalists from a pool of 760 artists, with each finalist representing a state or territory of Australia.

His selected work, Gurtha, draws on the sacred Gumatj design for fire and the ancestral story of the first fire on Gumatj Country. The repeating diamond pattern carries this knowledge, embodying the flames, smoke, ash and charcoal of the fire as it travelled across Country, connecting people, animals and places through ancestral events.

Thank you to and the judges, and for recognising Wanapati’s work and welcoming us to celebrate. Congratulations also to all the other finalists.

ART FAIR Gunybi Ganambarr
Originator of the Found movement, Gunybi Ganambarr has had six solos at Annandale Galleries spanning over two decades. The Yolŋu artist, working from his remote hometown of Gängän, has produced some of the most groundbreaking work of his generation. Under Ganambarr’s hand, the mass and rigidity of reclaimed metal seemingly melts away, often representing reservoirs and springs of the Ŋaymil/Datiwuy clans.

Ganambarr’s work now resides in every major institution in the country, as well as international collections such as the Metropolian Museum of Art, New York. His awards include the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award (2018), the Western Australian Indigenous Art Award (2011), and the Xstrata Coal Emerging Indigenous Artist Award (2008). In 2026 he was notably featured in the Biennale of Sydney at White Bay Power Station, and was a finalist in both Wynne and Sulman Prizes, Art Gallery of New South Wales.

His work will be on display with us at Booth A05, Carriageworks 3-6 September
