The most interesting Aboriginal art is less than 50 years old and is an indigenous western fusion, so claiming some sacred birthright being stolen is total BS.

You make the mistake of assuming what is most interesting to you is most interesting to everybody else.

Loads of people do that, unfortunately.

If you can't be a good example, you have to be a horrible warning.

Yes, some pretty stuff, but that's all modern art.
I'm not running it down but it's not traditional so the claims of it being stolen just doesn't hold water. We live in a global society, remember Wink
