Blockbusters
In every collection or exhibition invariably some paintings
will stand out from the rest sometimes because of sheer
size, historical relevance, rarity or fame. Nangara too
has dozens of works that by popular choice have earned the
title over the years.

“The last twenty-four untitled
(Alhalkere) paintings, as with other phases or changes of
direction in the artist’s career, radically challenged
all that had gone before. These extraordinary works were
not repeated, leaving the viewer to ponder what path the
artist might have taken next, or how these canvases fitted
with the rest of Kngwarreye’s immense output”.
