Extract

Has the success of the Aboriginal art market 'exploited' and 'corrupted' Aboriginal culture?
Aboriginal art has always been about the heritage of the Aboriginal people. Their images convey stories about their country, their religious ceremonies, their past and their Dreaming.
Recently Aboriginal art has boomed within the art market, not only in Australia but overseas also. Auction sales have tripled in value and some paintings have reached record prices, no doubt this appears as a blessing for Aboriginal people finally gaining recognition.
