Guwanyi: stories of the Redfern Aboriginal community was exhibited at the Museum of Sydney, 21 December 1996 – 4 May 1997. The exhibition was curated by Brad Webb, with assistance from Paul Jones, Shane Phillips and Cathy Craigie, using the work of four photographers: two Aboriginal – Brenda L Croft and Michael Riley, and two non-Aboriginal – Roger Parton and Elaine Kitchener (now Elaine Pelot Syron). A booklet of the same name as the exhibition was published and contains essays and interviews with people from Redfern.

Guwanyi ['to tell'] is also in our oral history section

35 of Michael Riley's photographs were in Guwanyi
 
'They are really just snapshots. I didn’t go out to try and compose these
 photos – they are just snapshots of people in a certain time and place.
Blackfellas love it when they have their photographs taken by people that they know.
They pose up real big when you pull the camera out – especially family.'

More of the Peoples History - Going through my massive archive of pics and came across these that I took around 1986. Very historic images now, featuring some of the most famous black political and cultural operators of that era, Bruce McGuinness, Bob Maza, Sol Bellear, Mac Silva, Freddy Reynolds, and for a while in the 60s, the King of Redfern, Kenny Brindle. With Lachie Ingram & Phyllis Harrison. Foley
