The first anthology to chronicle the global critical reception of Aboriginal Art since the early 1980s, when the art world began to understand it as contemporary art. Featuring contributions by 96 authors from the art world, it argues for a re-evaluation of Aboriginal Art's critical intervention into contemporary art since its seduction of the art world a quarter of a century ago.
