Knowledge shared by institutions

Mick Kubarkku (Ubargu) was born near the Mann and Liverpool River Districts, south of Maningrida and grew up in the rock-shelters in the Mann River District. His secluded upbringing led him to be one of the few remaining people to have recollections of painting methods for traditional rock art paintings done by elder clan members. He learned to paint watching his father, Ngindjalakku, and went on to become regarded as a prominent Aboriginal Australian artist. Kubarkku died May 16, 2008. [Info. from Wikipedia]
