Manasie Akpaliapik. Inuit Universe

The Museum will welcome Manasie Akpaliapik, a contemporary artist from Ikpiarjuk (Arctic Bay) on Baffin Island, Nunavut, for Inuit Universe, an exhibition dedicated to his work.

Conceived and produced by the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec and featuring sculptures from the late Raymond Brousseau’s remarkable collection of Inuit art, the exhibition will offer a unique look at the work of Manasie Akpaliapik. Considered one of the most gifted artists of his generation, he teases creations representing oral tradition, cultural values, the supernatural world, Arctic wildlife and the environment out of his preferred materials, stone and whale or caribou antlers.

Exhibition conceived and produced by the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec.
