The artworks within this guide and images required for the learning activities and culminating task can be found in the Norval Morrisseau Image File provided. Anishinaabe artist Norval Morrisseau (1931–2007) is considered by many to be the Mishomis, or grandfather, of contemporary Indigenous art in Canada. He is known for creating a distinctive style of painting that came to be known as the Woodland School, and for addressing a wide range of themes in his work, from spiritual beliefs to colonial history. Throughout his career, he explored ways of thinking about the land, and many of his most famous paintings emphasize the idea of land as a relation; Morrisseau believed that people live in relationship with animals, plants, the earth, and the spiritual world, a conviction shared by many Indigenous communities.
