Dorset Seen at the CUAG

We are pleased to announce that several gallery artists are currently featured in Dorset Seen, now showing at the Carleton University Art Gallery. Presented in conjunction with the Northern Scene celebrations taking place in Ottawa in late April and May, the exhibition includes works by Itee Pootoogook, Jamasie Pisteolak, Kavavaow Mannomee and Shuvinai Ashoona. Comprising 70 images by 20 artists, the show looks at the community of Cape Dorset as pictured by its leading artists, both historical and contemporary. Dorset Seen is curated by Sandra Dyck and Leslie Boyd and continues until June 2.

About Marion Scott Gallery

Now in our 38th year of operation, the Marion Scott Gallery has a long history of showcasing the best of contemporary art from the Canadian North. Specializing in both new and historical expressions from the Arctic in a range of media, the Gallery is committed to positioning the work of Canada’s Inuit artists within a national and international contemporary artistic framework. We work closely with a select group of contemporary artists from Cape Dorset, Baker Lake and other northern communities, presenting their work in both solo and thematic exhibitions with the aim of bringing their unique visions and dynamic sensibilities to the public’s attention.
