179+ artists across the arCtic
I began my collection of Inuit art accidently, not by design or inheritance. While on vacation, I caught sight of what would become my first piece: a bear by Dennis James-Gambell. That chance sighting in a gallery window ignited my passion for these unique works of art from the Arctic.
What truly extraordinary gifts these artisans of the Arctic have given the world. Their gifts are even more impressive when we consider the harsh conditions that have molded both the people and their talents. It is difficult for me to choose a favorite piece from this collection, which ranges from realistic to surrealistic, from Inuit life depictions to its mythological aspects.
