Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Cooperative

The Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Cooperative was founded in 1987[1] in the Sydney suburb of Redfern, New South Wales. Among the legacies of the cooperative are the Deadly Awards for achievement in the Indigenous Australian community, which have occurred annually from 1995 to the present. The 20th anniversary of the cooperative was celebrated in 2007 with an exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW.[2]

Its founding members of the cooperative are Michael Riley (1960-2004), Avril Quaill, Tracey Moffatt, Fiona Foley, Brenda L Croft, Jeffrey Samuels, Euphemia Bostock, Fern Martins, Bronwyn Bancroft and Arone Meeks.[3]
