Lot 194
DICK KILIKAVIOYAK (1906-1982)
Provenance:
Acquired directly from the artist, Coppermine, 1969-1979
Note:
“The most recent pieces of sculpture [depicting] single animals such as …the musk-ox… have a quiet air of gravity and seriousness about them that is almost iconic in effect. This feeling is conveyed by the strong horizontal lines of the bodies and the solemn, forward gaze of the eyes.”
from Coppermine Sculpture, exh. cat., Images Art Gallery (Toronto, ON), 1979
