Note:
“Johnny Inukpuk is the best known of all the ‘early masters’, as his round, polished, human figures and animals have been exhibited and illustrated extensively over the years. He has had a long and continuously productive carving career stretching from the early 1950’s to the present. In 1978 he was elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Artists.”
