Summary
"Inuit artist Irene Avaalaaqiaq is best known for her remarkable wall hangings, which reveal a rich tradition of spirit and shamanistic imagery. In this first critical retrospective of Avaalaaqiaq's work, Judith Nasby discusses her life and art as well as her commitment to preserving her Inuit heritage and making it accessible to an international audience."--Jacket
