GEORGE TJAPANANGKA (1938-2002) (Language group: Pintupi) Untitled (Tarkul) 2000 synthetic polymer paint on linen inscribed verso with artist's name and Papunya Tula Artists cat. no. GT0102088 and Alcaston Gallery cat. no. AK6961 91 x 153cm PROVENANCE: Papunya Tula Artists, Alice Springs (accompanied by a copy of the certificate of authenticity) Alcaston Gallery, Melbourne (accompanied by a copy of the certificate of authenticity) Private collection, Melbourne OTHER NOTES: "This painting depicts designs associated with the rockhole site of Tarkul, North of Mt Webb in Western Australia. In mythological times a large group of Tingari Men camped at this stie. They were tracking a Tjilkamata (echidna) when a big fire swept through the area. The men covered him with sand to save him. Since events associated with the Tingari Cycle are of a secret nature no further detail was given. Generally, the Tingari are a group of mythical characters of the Dreaming who travelled over vast stretches of the country, performing rituals and creating and shaping particular sites. The tingari Men were usually followed by Tingar Women and accompanied by novices and their travels and adventures are enshrined in a number of song cycles. These mythologies form part of the teachings of the post initiatory youths today as well as providing explanations for contemporary customs."
