Norval Morrisseau:The Red Lake YearsThis travelling exhibition, which originates from Red Lake, Ontario, features 16 paintings created between 1960 and 1975 by renowned Ojibway artist, Norval Morrisseau. Morrisseau lived in the Red Lake area during the formative years of his artistic career when he sold many of his colourful acrylics to local residents. The Red Lake Years consists entirely of works purchased by people from that region and the exhibition’s accompanying catalogue examines the relationship between the artist and his collectors. Visitors will be treated to examples of Morrisseau’s bold images of animals, humans and spirits that interact with one another via expressive lines of power and communication.
