Contemporary Inuit Drawing
Cracking the Glass Ceiling: Contemporary Inuit Drawing Nancy Campbell A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ART HISTORY, YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO. January 2017 © Nancy Campbell, 2017 Abstract The importance of the artist’s voice in art historical scholarship is essential as we emerge from post-colonial and feminist cultural theory and its impact on curation, art history, and visual culture. Inuit art has moved from its origins as an art representing an imaginary Canadian identity and a yearning for a romantic pristine North to a practice that presents Inuit identity in their new reality. This socially conscious contemporary work that touches on the environment, religion, pop culture, and alcoholism proves that Inuit artists can respond and are responding to the changing realities in the North. On the other side of the coin, the categories that have held Inuit art to its origins must be reconsidered and integrated into the categories of contemporary art, Indigenous or otherwise, in museums that consider work produced in the past twenty years to be contemporary as such. Holding Inuit artists to a not-so-distant past is limiting for the artists producing art today and locks them in a history that may or may not affect their work directly. This dissertation examines this critical shift in contemporary Inuit art, specifically drawing, over the past twenty years, known as the contemporary period. The second chapter is a review of the community of Kinngait and the role of the West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative in the dissemination of arts and crafts. -

Célèbres pour leurs igloos, traîneaux à chiens, kayaks et vêtements de peau, ils sont devenus les principaux «durs» de l’Arctique américain comme l’a montré le film «Nanook of the North». Maintenant qu’ils apparaissent sur la scène mondiale dotés de leurs moyens propres, leur singularité allégorique est aujourd’hui menacée. -

Paradise Lost? the Gender Parity Plebiscite in Nunavut
Paradise Lost? The Gender Parity Plebiscite in Nunavut by Jackie Steele and Manon Tremblay Prior to the creation of Canada’s newest Territory of Nunavut in 1999 a proposal was developed by the Nunavut Implementation Commission to promote gender equality in the new territorial legislature by creating electoral districts that would each elect one man and one woman. The resulting assembly with gender parity would have been a world’s first but this proposal received only 43% of the vote and was defeated. This article looks at events leading up to the referendum and factors that contributed to its defeat he Territory of Nunavut which means “Our Land” representatives of the federal government, NWT and or “Our Home” in the Inuit language of Inuktitut is Nunavut Tunngavik for consideration.

TRANSLATION Minister of Health, Hon. Patty Hajdu, MP Premier Of
--. TRANSLATION March 9/2020 Minister of Health, Hon. Patty Hajdu, MP Premier of Nunavut, Hon Joe Savikataaq, MLA Tununiq MLA, David Qamaniq, MLA I am writing this letter to the Premier of Nunavut and Canada's Health Minister. I want the Member of the Legislative Assembly for Tununiq, David Qamaniq, to table my letter in the House and make use of it. Please raise this issue with the Premier of Nunavut from a health perspective. I am just a member of the public, a voter. I am also an elected person in Pond Inlet. I am recognized as a Nunavut Land Claims beneficiary and fully recognized by beneficiaries only. I believe that they should be cared for more. I present to you, Member for Tununiq, David Qamaniq and to you, Premier of Nunavut, Joe Savikataaq, these issues for your consideration. Dogs weren't allowed to eat cooked meat as their bones might become brittle and more susceptible to breakage. All the children living in separate communiti~s were taught the same morals and values by being given advice and they were required to do things that had to be done. Nowadays we shop for things we like and buy food that we like from the stores. Maybe that is what is causing illness. I am writing to you because I think you, as legislators, should consider this seriously. I am not a health care professional by any means. I am just telling you what I know. I hear that you are more susceptible to illness if your blood is thin.
