Bio
Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri joined the original group of artists in the government settlement of Papunya in 1972. One of the most innovative and experimental of artists, Tjapaltjarri created map-like images of his country and introduced atmospheric effects. While he continued to paint for the Papunya collective, Papunya Tula Artists, in the early 1980s he branched out as an independent artist and painted several works on commission.
Clifford Possum emerged as one of Australia’s greatest painters of the twentieth century. In 1988 a survey of his paintings was mounted at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London, and in the year after his death a major retrospective exhibition toured Australia. Untitled, 1994, features a row of significant sites along the centre of the painting, flanked by meanders and bars that relate to Rain Dreamings, the straight bars resembling clouds and lighting, and the morning mists of the cold months are suggested by the bars of white to either side.
His paintings are held in galleries and collections in Australia and elsewhere, including the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the National Gallery of Australia, the Kelton Foundation and the Royal Collection.
