      • John Namerredje Guymala - Rock Kangaroo and Snake, 1963
        Mar. 08, 2022

        John Namerredje Guymala - Rock Kangaroo and Snake, 1963

        Est: $2,000 - $3,000

        Namerredje was a superb draftsman with a recognisably individual ‘hand’. The beautifully articulated patterns of rarrk that decorate his figures epitomise the Bininj notion of aesthetics in painting referred to as kabimbebme, literally ‘colour coming out’. In 1973, Namerredje and his family moved to Yaymini outstation, far to the south of Maningrida, which they shared with Wally Mandarrk and his family. In the 1970s, his work was collected by the Aboriginal Arts Board and by the American collector and professor of English literature, Ed Ruhe. Namerredje’s paintings were selected for The Art of Aboriginal Australia, which toured North America in 1974 till 1976, as well as Kunwinjku Bim at the National Gallery of Victoria in 1984. In this early work, Namerredje employs the traditional Oenpelli X Ray rock art style to show the internal organs of a kangaroo, and uses his traditional parallel rarrk in a style like his countryman Lofty Nadjamerrek. It is typical of Namerredje that his works are painted on bark with a monochrome background with just one or two dominant figurative elements. His later works abandon the X Ray style, but maintain the monochrome background. These later paintings use cross hatching or blocks of colour instead of parallel line work. He is likely to have been under the influence of Wally Mandarrk at the time.
