Quoted from article:
A collection of indigenous artwork from the private collection of Ron and Ross Aldridge is currently on show at the Wangaratta Exhibitions Gallery.
Exhibitions Officer Sally Huguenin says the exhibit could be described as a tour of the Northern Territory and other regions; “The first thing you will see when you enter the exhibit is some works from the Hermannsburg School, which is an art movement that started the Hermannsburg mission; a mid-20th century art movement that began when a young Albert Namatjira saw an exhibition of western-style watercolours of his country surrounding the Hermannsburg Mission west of Alice Springs.”
