Synonymous with Australian art activism, Richard Bell is a provocateur and ardent land rights activist.
A proud Aboriginal man of the Kamilaroi, Kooma, Jiman and Gurang Gurang people, Bell uses humour and wordplay to agitate and question notions of identity, place and postcolonial histories. This week his Embassy project opened in the prestigious Turbine Hall of London’s Tate Modern (20 May to 18 June).
