Illustrated with more than 100 color photographs, the works of art in this book are organized by geographic area, to illustrate the strong regional styles of this unique art form. Includes a major essay by a leading authority on Inuit art.

Lavishly illustrated with over a hundred colour reproductions, Celebrating Inuit Art 1948-1970 is an impressive photographic tribute to an art form that was virtually unknown fifty years ago but which is now regularly featured in major art exhibitions worldwide. This is a comprehensive, authoritative and breathtakingly beautiful survey of Inuit sculpture from a period of unequalled turmoil for the inhabitants of Canada's Far North
