This exhibition was developed by the National Museum of Australia for display in Japan in partnership with Japan's largest newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun, and two of its most prestigious venues, the National Museum of Art, Osaka and the National Art Center, Tokyo.
This exhibition not only told the story of Emily Kame Kngwarreye as one of Australia's greatest contemporary artists, but it also gave some insight into her life as a senior Anmatyerre woman and a lifelong custodian of the desert country that inspired her work.
The exhibition was on display at the following venues:
- National Museum of Art in Osaka from 26 February to 13 April 2008
- National Art Center in Tokyo from 28 May to 28 July 2008
- National Museum of Australia in Canberra from 22 August to
12 October 2008.
