Defining Moments in Inuit Art

Organized chronologically, the exhibition demonstrates the genesis and evolution of contemporary Inuit art. See the early 1950s carvings of Johnny Inukpuk and later story-tellers in stone and whale bone. Follow the development of graphic art from pioneer Jessie Oonark to Shuvinai Ashoona and others working today. Creations and Transformation is a splendid celebration of six decades of creativity.
