Frank Hodgkinson’s Kakadu and the Arnhem Landers is a unique publication. It represents the fruition of many years of travel and study in the extraordinary northern wilderness of Australia, observing and recording the land, its people and their way of life. Imbuing and adopting the traditional Aboriginal styles of art and incorporating his deep understanding of Aboriginal perceptions of the world, the artist has presented here a personal response to this magnificent landscape and those who live there.

This book is the work of a master artist of extraordinary vision.

Non-aboriginal artists rendering of Aboriginal art, tools, utensils, weapons, ceremony in watercolours, set in the context of an extensive travel log around the land, coast and islands of Arnhem Land.
