Saw an exhibit by
an Australian Aboriginal painter in the de Oude kerk (old church) - One
whole
section is taken up by these paintings - Just awsome.

These
are 'dot' paintings - some tell stories of earth, heavens and magic-
done by an aboriginal artist
- This is modern art.
In this painting the seven sisters are the constellation of Pleiades
and the
other star Orion - Nyiru is forever chasing the sisters
known as the Kunkarunkara women |

The
church also had some nice stained glass windows.
