    'Murri poet Lionel Fogarty is one of the most challenging Indigenous writers - one of the most 'unassimilated' to Western standards in both style and content. For the first time, readers see his voice expressed not only through writing, but through his art as well. Lionel's drawings are unique in their infusion of 20th century avant-garde elements and Indigenous Australian symbolism, producing spirit figures of a futuristic Dreaming that complement the poet's call for a powerful and independent indigenous identity.'
