What is Aboriginal art called?
1 Answer
Aboriginal art is also called Indigenous Australian art. Most Aboriginal art is in the form of painting, but there are many pieces of art created using other media. Aboriginal art is only considered Aboriginal if it is work created by someone who is of that origin.
