Produktbeschreibung
Itee Pootoogook (1951-2014) was a man of few words, but his drawings speak eloquently about the North. A meticulous draughtsman who trained as a carpenter, he worked with graphite and coloured pencil, depicting the buildings of Kinngait, the open horizon, and the ever-shifting colours of the Arctic landscape. Gerald McMaster writes about the stillness of his drawings that give "viewers the sense that they had just landed on some lonely planet." Sarah Milroy describes his compositions as "a kind of fine visual joinery, worthy of the artist-builder." In this volume, a celebration of the creative spirit of this innovative artist, Nancy Campbell has assembled a host of Canadian artists, curators, and writers to bear witness to Itee Pootoogook's legacy and the power of his work.
