NEO-INUIT PRINTMAKING ART

The famed mid-20th-century Inuit printmaking cooperatives (Cape Dorset, etc.) have inspired a new generation of Inuit graphic artists who use digital tablets but maintain the spirit of the originals: bold, minimal forms of Arctic animals and community life, sometimes blended with surreal or political imagery. These neo-Inuit prints are an inclusive extension of a Northern heritage art, allowing contemporary Inuit to comment on climate change or cultural continuity through an evolved yet respectful visual language beloved by collectors worldwide.
