Abell Auction Co. will present a wonderful array of Aboriginal art from the collection of Richard Kelton (1929-2019), whose respect and passion for the Australian Indigenous culture inspired him to curate one of the world's most important private collections of its kind.

Featuring over 300 lots, the important sale will offer paintings on canvas, bark paintings, prints, sculptures, carvings, regalia, and other unique items.

Vice President Todd Schireson. 'These extraordinary works demonstrate important developments in 20th century art, ranging from early bark painters of Arnhem Land, to the Western Desert artists who set the course for the way in which Aboriginal art was disseminated and appreciated internationally. They also serve as a testament to the prominence and recognition of women artists.'
