Cape Dorset Artists

Since the nineteen-fifties artists in Cape Dorset (Kingait) have been drawing pictures and making prints, which are presented to the public annually in a print sale and exhibition held simultaneously in various American and Canadian cities. Here you will see slides of the work of some of the outstanding pioneer artists of whom two (Kenojuak and Napatchie) are still alive and continuing to contribute their art to the unbroken tradition of the annual print collection. Many of these slides are linked to information on Inuit life and culture, and you can access this information by going to Inuit Cultural Perspectives.
