Ronnie Tjampitjinpa
Ronnie Tjampitjinpa was born around 1943 at Tjiturrunya in the region near Munyenga about 100 km west of the Kintore Ranges in Western Australia. Tjampitjinpa’s family traveled extensively across Pintupi territory, moving throughout this region and also in the area around Wilkinkarra, which straddles Western Australia to the Northern Territory border. Tjampitjinpa was initiated into Aboriginal Law at Yumari, near his birthplace. After prolonged droughts in the 1950s, he moved with his family, first to Haasts Bluff, then to Papunya. Over the years, moving between Aboriginal communities stations, Tjampitjinpa talked to many people about returning to traditional lands, a move that was made possible with the establishment of Kintore in 1981. Tjampitjinpa moved there with his family in the early 1980s and has since emerged as one of Papunya Tula Artists' major painters.

- Aboriginal Painting 'Tingari Dreaming' by Ronnie Tjampitjinpa (1943-)Located in NICE, FRABOUT THE WORK "RETINGARI DREAMING" The migration of the ancestors is depicted through interlocking squares in this artwork. These symbolic motifs narrate the journeys of the Tingari ancestors, who sculpted the terrains in the desert, infusing them with life. The subdued, warm tones evoke the ochre hues of the desert and the hills of Kintore, the community from which the artist hails. ABOUT RONNIE TJAMPITJINPA Ronnie Tjampitjinpa was born in 1943 in an almost uncharted region near Muyinga, Australia. He commenced painting only in the 1980s. Starting in 1970, he ardently advocated for Aboriginal rights, particularly for their return to their ancestral lands. Having played a significant political role, he chose to retire to his homeland in 2002, dedicating himself solely to painting. Often working in solitude, he isolates himself for several weeks in the desert to rejuvenate. Ronnie Tjampitjinpa's distinctive style is easily recognizable. The geometrical elements in his paintings captivate the viewer and reflect a territorial representation unique to Pintupi art, a region he traversed during his youth. His themes are diverse, encompassing Water Dreams, Fire Dreams, and a particular affinity for the Tingari cycles. Ronnie Tjampitjinpa stands as a prominent figure in contemporary Aboriginal art in Australia. He was listed as one of the "50 Most Collectable Australian Artists" by the Australian Art Collector Magazine in both 2001 and 2009. Awards received by the artist: 2004 - Finalist, 21st Telstra National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Award, Darwin (Australia) 1995 - Highly commended recognition at the 20th Annual Fremantle Print Award (Australia) 1988 - Alice Springs Art...Category
