The Plattsburgh State Art Museum is pleased to present one of our fall 2023
exhibitions:


*Our Environment, Our Land: Twentieth-Century Inuit Prints and
Sculptures*Curated
by Dr. Karen Blough, Art Historian
*August 29 - December 8, 2023*
Feinberg Library Quiet Room
*Reception: *Thursday, August 31st from 4-6pm


This exhibit showcases the Plattsburgh State Art Museum’s collection of
prints and sculptures from the Cape Dorset Inuit community (Kinngait;
Nunavut, Canada) as well as loans from significant regional collectors. The
works fall into three often overlapping categories: Inuit life; the Inuit
belief system; and Inuit interaction with the natural world. Its content,
emphasizing the Inuit origin myths of the sun and moon and incorporating
animal and human forms, visualizes the Inuit belief system as well as Inuit
engagement with the natural world.
