A gorgeous retrospective on the transformation of Inuit art in the 20th century, mirroring the vast and poignant cultural changes in the North. This retrospective of modern Inuit art reveals the social, political and cultural transformation of an ancient culture influenced by Euro-Canadian contact. This book features 190 full-colour photographs, beautifully displayed with simple, crisp design. The book's essays situate modern Inuit art within a larger framework that reinterprets the Canadian Arctic, with essays by leading Canadian scholars in the field examining the social, political and cultural transformation through the dynamic lens of colonial influence and agency.
