In Remote Avant-Garde Jennifer Loureide Biddle models new and emergent desert Aboriginal
aesthetics as an art of survival. Since 2007, Australian government policy has targeted
"remote" Australian Aboriginal communities as at crisis level of delinquency and dysfunction.
Biddle asks how emergent art responds to national emergency, from the creation of
locally hunted grass sculptures to biliterary acrylic witness paintings to stop-motion
animation. Following directly from the unprecedented success of the Western Desert
art movement, contemporary Aboriginal artists harness traditions of experimentation
to revivify at-risk vernacular languages, maintain cultural heritage, and ensure place-based
practice of community initiative. Biddle shows how these new art forms demand serious
and sustained attention to the dense complexities of sentient perception and the radical
inseparability of art from life. Taking shape on frontier boundaries and in zones
of intercultural imperative, Remote Avant-Garde presents Aboriginal art "under occupation"
in Australia today
