Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Aboriginal Memorial is a work of contemporary Indigenous Australian art, created in the late 1980s, and comprises 200 decorated hollow-log coffins. The coffins were created by 43 artists from Ramingining and neighbouring communities of Central Arnhem Land, in the Northern Territory. Artists who participated in its creation included David Malangi and George Milpurrurru. The work was undertaken to coincide with the Australian Bicentenary and commemorates those Indigenous Australians who died as a result of European settlement. It was acquired by the National Gallery of Australia and stands at the entry to the gallery's new building that opens in September 2010. Described as an icon of the National Gallery's collection, and "one of the outstanding works of art to have been created in Australia", the memorial is laid out with a central pathway between the log-coffins representing the passage of the Glyde River through central Arnhem Land.
