In this respect the exhibition offers a response to Eric Michaelss claim, originally made in the context of debates over commercial, cultural and aesthetic values, that Indigenous art is the product of too many discourses.13 Indigenous art in Everywhen appears less as a discursive surplus (assuming that such excess could be strictly determined) than as a position from which to interrogate other discourses, while also asserting its own internal concerns. 1 On the incorporation of Indigenous Australian art into the museum and gallery sector, and the problematic concomitant reception in terms of modernist ideals of innovation and genius, see Cath Bowdler, Shimmering Fields, Artlink, 28, no 2, 2008, pp 30-33.

Works such as Anwelarr angerr (Big yam) (1996) and My Country (1992) convey a dynamism and colour palette stemming from a deep connection to her tribal homeland, which informed every aspect of her art and life. Everywhen succeeds in demonstrating the fundamental position Indigenous art must occupy in any discussion of the contemporary, precisely because this art places intense pressure upon some of the most theoretically rigorous conceptions of contemporary art.

As Ian McLean succinctly notes, Osbornes underlying point is that the contemporary has acquired the historical significance that the modern held for most of the twentieth century, thus usurping its former paradigmatic function.6 Whereas the modern, for Osborne (as for others, such as Groys), attempts to envision and create a future, the contemporary involves a co-presentness of a multiplicity of times.7 Just as the exhibition Everywhen advances a complex, layered experience of time, so too does Osborne advance the thesis that the contemporary is defined by a disjunctive logic, meaning that the present comprises multiple, fractured and intersecting modes of inhabitation. While it could be argued that Osbornes six claims permit the visibility of Indigenous art as contemporary art, the works and concerns of Indigenous artists predate, such as the coolamon, those conceptual practices that Osborne identifies as essential precursors for the experience of the contemporary. 200.
