Richard Bell lives and works across Sydney and Brisbane, Australia. His works explore the complex artistic and political intersection of Western, colonial and Indigenous art production in a variety of media including painting, installation, performance and video. Over a career spanning more than three decades, Bell grew out of a generation of Aboriginal activists and remains committed to the politics of Aboriginal emancipation and self-determination.
