Albert Namatjira
Albert Namatjira is an Aboriginal artist from the MacDonnell Ranges in Central Australia. A pioneer of contemporary Indigenous Australian art, he is the most famous Indigenous Australian of his generation. A member of the Western Arrernte people, Namatjira was born and raised in the Hermannsburg Lutheran Mission outside of Alice Springs. He showed an interest in art from an early age, but it was not until 1934 and under the direction of Rex Battarbee that he began to draw in earnest. Namatjira's detailed and Western-influenced watercolors differ from the abstract designs and symbols of traditional Aboriginal art and inspire the Hermannsburg school of painting. It has become a household name in Australia and its reproductions have hung in homes across the country.
