In last fall\u2019s edition of myWAG, Dr. Heather Igloliorte, leader of the Inuit Art Centre\u2019s inaugural exhibition guest curatorial team, revealed that the exhibition will be titled, INUA\u2013a word meaning \u2018spirit\u2019 or \u2018life force.\u2019 INUA is also an acronym for Inuit Nunangat Ungammuaktut Atautikkut, which loosely translated means \u2018Inuit Moving Forward Together.\u2019<\/p>\n

Works from close to 50 artists will offer a balanced representation of all four regions of Inuit Nunangat, other Canadian regions and urban centres, and various art media. New works integrated with works from the collection will span several generations of artists. About half of the new works will be specially commissioned for INUA. Works from other circumpolar areas such as Greenland, Alaska, and Siberia will also be celebrated.<\/p>\n

As Dr. Igloliorte noted, \u201cThe Inuit world is vast, and our arts proliferate everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

The curatorial team met again in mid-January, spending much of their time selecting works from the collection in the WAG vaults. They\u2019re now continuing to meet with artists and confirm commissions and loaned works.<\/p>\n

As more works become confirmed, the team comes closer to envisioning how they will be presented in the main Inuit Gallery and other Inuit Art Centre spaces.<\/p>\n

Ideas are emerging for the Centre\u2019s grand opening celebration in 2020, including live performances and Inuit food.<\/p>\n

None of this would be possible without the amazing support of our donors. Stay tuned for more exciting details on the WAG Inuit Art Centre\u2019s inaugural exhibition over the coming months!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
