Summary:
With the warm ring of the spoken word at their centre, Taqralik Partridge’s poems wrestle with colonisation and racial violence while also reflecting rich sensory imagery—from the stain of blueberries, to the relationships of sisters and aunts, to a knowledge of the land. Originally from Kuujjuaq, Nunavik, Quebec, and now living in Kautokeino, Norway, Taqralik Partridge(...)

Summary:
L’exposition « Un monde en commun » sous le commissariat Julie Belisle et Josianne, aura lieu du 2 mai au 26 juillet 2026 à la Fondation Grantham du 5 septembre 2026 au 2 mai 2027 à la Biosphère |'Espace pour la vie. L’exposition rassemble les œuvres des artistes Maude Arès, Geneviève Chevalier, Hannah Claus, Jim Holyoak, Richard Ibghy & Marilou Lemmens, Fre´de´ric Lavoie, Angela Marsh, Kimberly Orjuela, Taqralik Partridge & Miranda Smitheram. En tentant d’adopter la perspective de l’hirondelle, du mulot ou encore du pissenlit, les œuvres réunies dans cette exposition décentrent notre regard. Elles nous enjoignent à considérer comment le territoire nous accueille et comment nous le partageons avec d’autres espèces, nous invitant à nous engager envers un monde pluriel, solidaire et profondément relationnel. Par des gestes de soin, des approches collaboratives de la création et une attention à l’éthique interspécifique, elles offrent une compréhension étendue de la notion d’hospitalité et nous encouragent à repenser nos manières « d’habiter ». Ensemble, elles explorent la possibilité d’« un monde en commun » où tous les vivants pourraient s’épanouir.

Summary:
Kenojuak Ashevak shot to fame in 1970 when Canada Post printed The Enchanted Owl, a print of a black-and-red plumed nocturnal bird, on a postage stamp. She later became known as the magic-marker-wielding "grandmother of Inuit art," famous for her fluid graphic storytelling and her stunning depictions of wildlife. She was a defining figure in Inuit art and one of the first Indigenous artists to be embraced as a contemporary Canadian artist. Ashevak's legacy inspired her nephew, Timootee (Tim) Pitsiulak, to take up drawing at the Kinngait Studios. In his relatively short career, he became a popular figure, known for drawing animal figures with a hunter's precision and capturing the technological presence of the South in Nunavut. Tunirrusiangit, "their gifts" or "what they gave" in Inuktitut, celebrates the achievements of two remarkable artists who challenged the parameters of tradition while consistently articulating a compelling vision of the Inuit world view. Published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario, opening on 16 June and continuing until late August, ''Tunirrusiangit'' features more than 60 reproductions of paintings, drawings, and documentary photographs. Completing the book are essays by contemporary artists and curators Jocelyn Piirainen, Anna Hudson, Georgiana Uhlyarik, Koomuatuk Curley, Laakkuluk Williamson Bathory, and Taqralik Partridge that address both the past and future of Inuit identity.
