We
are thrilled to be able to handle the 2018 Cape Dorset Annual Print
Collection here in Beacon, New York and invite you to view the
collection on Saturday, October 20th from Noon to 6 PM in what has
fondly taken shape as our Inuit Room. Until then, please
preview the images at the above website and note that prices quoted for
the prints are in Canadian dollars which works in favor of collectors in
the US at the present time.
"The 59th annual print collection
presents an exciting mix of themes; the comforting and naturalistic are
juxtaposed with familiar motifs presented in bold, new perspectives. Our
established artists, Ningiukulu Teevee, Qavavau Manumie, Papiara
Tukiki, Pitaloosie Saila, and Shuvinai Ashoona all return this year with
their highly characteric imagery. Cee Pootoogook and Padloo Samayualie,
both in their mid-career, steadily continue to produce engaging work
that delight the eye. Emerging talents, Pauojoungie Saggiak and
Quvianaqtuk Pudlat, are confidently making waves in the art world and
establishing a brand new stage of their own. Lastly, Axangayuk Shaa, a
very established sculptor and the eldest artist featured in the
collection, has just released his first print since 1961." (from the
foreword to the 59th Annual Cape Dorset Print Collection by Naia Wang)
