Following the nation-wide success of the documentary My Name is Gulpilil, Djungi Gulpilil adds to suite of works that honour and celebrate the life and career of actor, dancer, singer, and painter David Gulpilil, and features Gulpilil’s ‘King Brown Snake and Blue Tongue Lizard at Gulparil Waterhole’, on loan from the Art Gallery of South Australia. Bula’bula artists featured in the exhibition include the acclaimed painter Philip Gudthaygudthay, who is culturally Gulpilil’s gutharra (grandson), Gulpilil’s yapas (sisters) Evonne Munuyngu and his twin, leading weaver Mary Dhapalanay, and long ago galay (wife) R Djunginy.
