Resumo

The most interesting development with this year's Telstra National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards (NATSIAAs) was in the form of the Salon des Refus s exhibition, held in a pop-up space in the former Commonwealth Bank building in Darwin's CBD. It was a novel if indirect way to mark the Telstra's 30th year where the main attraction - the NATSIAAs exhibition itself - seemed to lack the customary opening-night fanfare or palpable buzz. By contrast, the Salon's opening night (the night before the NATSIAAs opening) was standing room only.
