When Annie Pootoogook won the Sobey Art Award in 2006, she cracked
the glass ceiling for Inuit art, securing its place in contemporary
Canadian art discourse and establishing herself as an artist of
international importance. Her achievement sparked critical
discussion around contemporary art as well as the absence, and
growing presence, of Inuit art: an important conversation that
continues to this day. The life and death of Annie Pootoogook is a
story of national significance. The complex narratives weaving
through her short life speak to possibility and heartbreak, truth
and reconciliation, the richness of community, and the depths of
tragedy. These complexities are recorded in her arresting pencil
crayon compositions. Her frank, sometimes challenging, sometimes
amusing images of everyday life, acutely observed and marked by a
linear control as taut as a wire, declare her as a major
contributor to the landscape of contemporary Inuit art. Annie
Pootoogook: Cutting Ice accompanied an exhibition organized by the
McMichael Canadian Art Collection, the gallery of record for works
on paper from Annie Pootoogook's Inuit community of Kinngait (Cape
Dorset). Under the direction of Nancy Campbell, this publication
and the exhibition serve to commemorate the life and work of a
remarkable artist after her tragically early death.
