Rare indigenous art displayed at inaugural University of Winnipeg ArtsFest
Sep 27, 2013
It’s a rare opportunity to see some stunning art treasures. The University of Winnipeg opens its doors to the public for an inaugural nine-day ArtsFest, Sept. 27 – Oct. 5. And among the offerings is an exhibition of Contemporary Indigenous Art at Convocation Hall.
“I’m really thrilled that we can share these pieces with the public,” says curator Jennifer Gibson.
The collection consists of 15 paintings and prints, including two silkscreens by Ojibway artist Daphe Odjig. “Odjig is known as the grandmother of contemporary Indigenous art,” explains Gibson. “She’s nationally and internationally recognized.”
“These are two really famous images by her,” says Gibson.
