Bio

George Tjungurrayi, a Pintupi man, was born circa 1943 around Walawala near Kiwirrkurra in Western Australia. In 1976 George began painting for Papunya Tula Artists. Painting the Tingari stories, for around ten years he did the definitive Pintupi dotted grids of lines and circles. In the late 1990’s George changed to topographical linework in a minimalist palette.   For contemporary city collectors these challenging works to the ‘eye’ were reminiscent of the British Op Art School of the 1960’s. For George, being a Pintupi senior Law Man, they were important foundations of his own culture. 

George’s first solo exhibition was in Sydney in 1997 and by 2003 he was recognised as one of the “50 most collectable artists’ by Australian Art Collector magazine. 

George now spends most of his time living in Kintore. He married Nanupu Nangala and they had five children. His older sisters are the renowned artists Naata Nungurrayi and Nganngi (Nancy) Nungurrayi who began painting with Papunya Tula Artists in the mid 1990’s.
