Fine Art Prints by Frankie "Tango" Lane

Djilpin Arts' collection of Gapu limited edition prints commenced in 2007 with Basil Hall Editions. Gapu, or water, is the inspiration behind much of the work produced. The continuing collaboration between artists from Djilpin’s Ghunmarn Culture Centre and Basil Hall encourages new and emerging artists as well as established artists to experiment with a variety of print mediums. Etchings and Silk Screens make up Series I to IV, with Series V also including Japanese Woodblock prints.
