Portrait of Albert in Truck from P.P.F (Past-Present-Future)

In Vincent Namatjira's Foyer Wall Commission titled "P.P.F. (Past-Present-Future)", the Western Aranda artist has assembled 7 figures significant to his life and practice in a large-scale ‘heroes narrative’. The work is semi-autobiographical – the artist states that each of the men represented on the wall have inspired him, and remind him of who he is.

Vincent has painted his great-grandfather, artist Albert Namatjira, sitting with his arm on the window of his ute.
