Artist Albert Namatjira was a Western Arrernte man.

Western Arrernte refers to Arrernte (pronounced aRUNda) people who traditionally live in Arrernte lands west of Alice Springs. It also refers to a dialect of the Arrernte language that is spoken in this area. Some people argue that Western Arrernte is an entirely different language and group of people to Central Arrernte and Eastern Arrernte. There is much debate on this topic amongst Arrernte people themselves.
