Tracing Tradition in a Changing Arctic

Discover the artistry and cultural heritage of Inuit artists in Voices from the Arctic: Contemporary Inuit Art, an exhibition showcasing sculptures, prints, and drawings from the 1960s to today. Featuring works from the Eiteljorg’s permanent collection and select loans from prominent collectors, this compelling exhibition offers a rare opportunity to explore the creative expressions and profound stories of Inuit communities from Canada’s far north.

Through this collection, visitors will experience the evolution of Inuit art, from traditional depictions of hunting, dogsledding, and spiritual narratives to contemporary reflections on technology, changing lifestyles, and the pressing impacts of climate change. These works not only celebrate the ingenuity and resilience of Inuit artists but also shed light on their intimate connection to the land and their role as witnesses to the dramatic environmental changes affecting not only the Arctic, but the world.
