The Cross Art Projects foregrounds contemporary work and curatorial projects that reflect the multiple relationships between art, life and the public sphere, and explores the boundaries of this context. We are attentive to the local without sacrificing the scope of Indigenous and international views. Cross Art enhances its projects with conversations, walks and events on contemporary art, urban planning, architecture and heritage.

Artists working at lltja Ntjarra (Many Hands) studio in Mparntwe/Alice Springs command one of our major landscape traditions: the Hermansburg watercolour school of Central Australia. The brilliant Western Aranda artist Albert Namatjira and his kin began the school in the late 1930s and encoded the Western landscape sublime with an overlaid map of significant sites, living waters and ancestral storylines. The subtle overlay is sometimes described as a re-claiming or re-appropriation of stolen country.
