An activist Dutch-Aboriginal couple are looking for help in Europe and Australia to put on an exhibition of Aboriginal art made by prisoners in Australian jails.
“Funding should be no problem from this end as long as we can get some venues to exhibit.”
I imagine contacts in the art world would be of great help.

Jack would like to present the exhibition in Germany, Holland and Belgium, as well as Australia. He writes, “As soon as I get folders organised I will send them over. They will state the name of the artist and the meaning of the painting.”
“If you could help to organise venues, maybe museums, that would be great,” writes Dutchman Jack van den Berg, husband of Perth Aboriginal Elder and activist, Professor Rosemary van den Berg.
