Norval Morrisseau

4.9/5 (24770 ratings)

Description:The relationship between Norval Morrisseau and anthropologist,Selwyn Dewdney was an important one for both. They met in 1960 when Dewdney traveled by canoe through the Red Lake district searching for petroglyphs along the waterways. Morrisseau signed on as a paddler and guide. Together theyexplored the petroglyphs of the Great Lakes, which proved to be influential in his paintings, helping Morrisseau to formalize the stylized visual vocabulary with which he created his iconic paintings. The journey was fruitful for both and culminated in their collaboration in 1965 on a book of Ojibwaystories that Morrisseau wrote and illustrated with his fluid drawings and Dewdney edited, called Legends of My People, the Great Ojibway. At all times in Morrisseau’s art, the artist is conscious of including the narrative of his own life and context, searching for a way to make intelligent use of his ancestral culture and his own life in a rapidly modernizing Canadian landscape. For Morrisseau, Dewdney was a friend and colleague who provided him with an artistic vocabulary, a means ofexpressing his Ojibwa heritage from his perspective as a 20th century Ojibwa negotiating the barrier between the white world and the aboriginal world.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
