Four Inuit curators led the exhibition’s development and ground this major retrospective in first person narratives, storytelling, poetry and film
This summer, the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) welcomes Tunirrusiangit: Kenojuak Ashevak and Tim Pitsiulak, a unique celebration of two iconic Inuit artists as seen through the eyes of four contemporary Inuit curators. Opening in Toronto on June 16, 2018 the exhibition showcases over 100 works on paper by “the grandmother of Inuit art” Kenojuak Ashevak (1927–2013), and her nephew Tim Pitsiulak (1967–2016), one of the most sought-after contemporary Inuit artists in his lifetime.
