Featuring more than 100 works of art created in the late 20th and early 21st century by Aboriginal artists across the continent of Australia, SAM's summer exhibition Ancestral Modern: Australian Aboriginal Art from the Kaplan & Levi Collection presents the seemingly modern and intricate iconographic visual language of the world's oldest living culture.

This 60-minute tour introduces visitors to a diverse range of artistic expressions—from paintings on canvas and bark to sculptures carved of wood, woven of fiber and cast in bronze.

Tours are Wednesday–Friday at 1 & 2 pm; Saturday–Sunday at 11 am, 1 & 2 pm
