Tony Anguhalluq: Recent Drawings

In a remarkably short time, Tony Anguhalluq has emerged to become one of the most original voices in contemporary Inuit art. The adopted son of renowned Inuit artists Luke Anguhadluq (1895 – 1982) and Marion Tuu’luq (1910 – 2000), Anguhalluq discovered his own talent for two-dimensional image-making during a printmaking and
drawing workshop that occurred in Baker Lake in the mid-1990s.
Marion Scott Gallery proudly presents this young drawer’s first solo exhibition, following the debut of his drawings
in the group show Landscape: Contemporary Inuit Drawings. Consisting of recent works on paper, the exhibition shows Anguhalluq at a new stage in his aesthetic and creative evolution and confirms his status as an original interpreter of the northern landscape.
