The Aboriginal Art Directory (AAD) News provides news and reviews industry-wide, and is a noted source of archive material for the industry.

The mainstay of the News has been Jeremy Eccles, an ex-BBC political correspondent, and head of Current Affairs for Radio Hong Kong.

His 1998 documentary film ‘Art from the Heart?’ was shown three times on ABC TV and at international film festivals.

Jeremy Eccles is an elected member of the International Association of Art Critics.
