Dinny Nolan's birth date has
been suggested to be 1922 or
even earlier. He claims he survived the Coniston massacre of
1928. Dinny spent many years working as a stockman across the
Territory before arriving in Papunya in the mid 70's. Since Dinny is a cousin to Clifford Possum, Billy Stockman and Kaapa,
his transition to the Papunya painting group was smooth. In 1977
he traveled to exhibitions of his work in galleries in
Melbourne, Victoria. Dinny has also traveled extensively
throughout the USA. He has attended various American indigenous
conferences and exhibitions as a guest of the American native
tribes people.

Dinny's collections can be found at
the National Gallery of Australia, Artbank, National Gallery of
Victoria, Art Gallery of WA, Victorian Museum and the Victorian
Arts Centre.

Gloria Petyarra was born
around 1945 in her country of Atnangkere. Gloria continually
experiments with line & colour and she says she prefers the
medium of acrylic on canvas. Some of her work now has no dots at
all, instead great bands of color whose effects have shown
comparison to British artist Bridget Riley.
In 1990 she traveled to London and
India as a representative of the Utopia Women in the "Utopia -
A Picture Story" exhibition. (Tandanya, Adelaide, The Royal
Hibernian Academy, Dublin Ireland and the Meat Market Gallery in
Melbourne) |
 |
In 1991 Gloria had her first solo
exhibition at the Utopia Art in Sydney. Since then she has
exhibited at the National Gallery in Canberra, Art Gallery of
New South Wales, Jinta Desert Art in Sydney and the Powerhouse
Museum in Sydney. She also has work in major collections like
The National Gallery of Australia, the Robert Holmes a' Court
Collection and the Museum of Victoria.
