"Since time immemorial - if not earlier"😆
Russell is an ancient Aboriginal word meaning “ Dream crusher “.
Those girls were good sports I reckon😁
You mean the old women?
@@oinkooinkyou mean missing links
Even though Dot paintings were introduced to the indigenous by a white bloke Geoffrey Bardon in the 1970's. But dont let the truth get in the way of a good story.
This story must also be a myth because there are plenty of shields pre-dating that 1970s with the dot motif. What is certain is that large paintings on bark that are then sold off to markets outside is an invention of the 1970s. I'm not sure of the complete history but the site "Aboriginal Dot Painting: Evolution and History" is certainly more compatible with my personal observation of historical artwork that I have seen in public museums and art galleries.
@@chriswatson7965 Yes no one would deny the occasional dots in aboriginal ancient artwork, but unfortunately the truth is never told but adapted to modern society as fact.
@@mark703 My claim is that the claim that Bardon introduced the drawings to aboriginal society is equally misrepresentative. And it is not just the occasional dot, I'm talking full dot paintings on aboriginal shields that date to the 19th C that I have seen with my own eyes.
Mark common now, your fibbin is fairly blatant, the canvas was introduced not dot painting. Haha ahh the irony…you’re really the embodiment of ´don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story‘. lollol Jolly good stuff!
@@joecav9660 I think you have been reading to much Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe.
Russell Coight can replace Sir Les Patterson as Australia's "Cultural Attache".🤣
They always look like that! Keeps the young fellas on their toes!
Since time immemorial…, or the 1970s when the white professor introduced the concept of dot paintings 😂
He introduced painting ancient dot art onto canvas.
Just to clarify; dot paintings are from the 1970’s. That’s why it’s not on any cave art. It was introduced by a Dutch artist while visiting Austealia
Dot art is very ancient. Putting it on canvas started in the 70s.
Ah where is the evidence of this please?
invented by Geoffrey Bardon. a school teacher. white. around the 70's 👍
@@incredingo he got the locals to put their art on canvas. He didn't invent it.
Absolute rubbish
Dot painting existing for eons in Aboriginal culture as body paint and sand drawings. Because they weren't allowed to be viewed by uninitiated people, after completion they were washed off or smoothed over. In 1971. Geoffrey Bardon was assigned as an art teacher for the children of the Aboriginal people in Papunya, near Alice Springs. He encouraged the people to paint their designs on canvas for permanent display.
thats Gold 👍✋
Strange thing that the concept of 'dot' painting on canvas was taught to them a few decades ago by a white teacher I think..
A French man. He saw the children drawing in the red dust and thought he would teach them a simple way to paint. Well that's what I was told by the internet anyway lol
Is think the right word?
They would send entertainers and teachers up to the communities .a guy who was teaching art saw the old people drawing in the sand , He suggested they should put it on canvas and sell them which they loved the idea of. Same with all the lizards and carved items you see in the museum or for sale they're all fake
Pointillism from Europe 👍
@@cbdgallery Completely different
Fantastic as always mate 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Haha I was waiting for that
He did a mark McGowan with the translate bit at the start 😂
as an artist I felt that last bit in the guts (good thing they were just playing) 😅
It would be great to see Russell perform a live concert of his music. A World Wide Coight Tour celebration for 2025!
You cannot take this guy anywhere
Dulux art
Old girl genuinely looks pissed off.
She was born that way.
@@Deontjie She was forced to be like it by a racist country.
Coighta !!!
To all those denigrating Aboriginal art in a comedy sketch of all places, please recognise that the Aboriginal art industry contributes $250 million to the Australian economy and has international recognition. Let's value the contributions our First People's bring to this country.
That’s in Alice Springs or what ? Them rangers in the back ground
They produce European inspired paintings although in a limited repetitive way
They never painted anything,they just survive.that was hard enough😢 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Exactly I'm not sure why people don't work out that if you are just carrying everything you're not going to carry carved lizards and dot paintings lol
Russell is an elderly of the DILYWADA tribe.
Ha! says the Canadian.
Well it was either that or he could have set it alight.
Lol, Aboriginal art was invented in the Seventies by a French professor.
Lmao 🤣 he is a legend 🤣🤣🤣
I think morse code is more artistic. Uses the same dots & dashes but at least it conveys something.
🤣 woops!
I do enjoy asking people how long they suppose the aboriginals have been recording their ancient history in dot art.
😂😂😂😂😂
Aboriginal Art - why did I assume it'd be made out of beer cans
Dot paintings taught by white people not long ago.
Never seen it growing up
HaHa
If any of your working dogs visit the USA, please stay clear of Kristi Noems gravel pit.
This is an Australian parody show. It's all a joke about outback expert wannabes. Noone is coming to the US to make these ridiculous parodies.
@@OffGridInvestor you're a real genius 👏
He should have gone to china or hong kong thats where it comes from 😅😅
It's a comic sketch. A parody. Not a single word about dot painting. But the irrational hostility towards indigenous Australians runs so deep that self-proclaimed experts on indigenous art pile in and treat it literally as if it's supposed to be a documentary.
An ancient art form, that is not an ancient art, from a peoples that didn't document anything. Whatva joke.
Invented in 1980 as a gimmick by a white dude to sell dots on a page, a 5 year old could make better art.
Not like they have been doing it for centuries haha.
Its an old tradition transferred from rock and paper bark art to canvas, the art itself has been around longer than your ancestors lol
Probably get ya facts straight before blowing your load on CZcams trying to seem intelligent 😂
@@Electrical-face yeh nah
I always had a sense the old stuff was lines. My mum has some terrific photos from the late 70s of cave paintings of first contact with British red coats, firing muskets and all. Then there was fish and a few other things. Incredible detail.
@@Electrical-facenot the dot art though. It was more normal looking asides from spirits.
Meh!
the DOTS OF PAINT IS NOT ABORIGINAL
Mostly bs
Abo art is hilariously terrible.
Its Not aboriginal art.
He didn't say Sorry
We don't blood well have to. We have done nothing to say sorry for.
@@kathrynletchford5114 google sarcasm 😀
@@kathrynletchford5114 You reckon, taking children from their parents and giving them to abusive religious organizations, banning people from entering towns to see their relatives or gain employment, arresting people for not understanding a sign that is not in a language they understand, raping and murdering them.....seems you've got a couple of eye patches on.
