Canadian Art

Ignoring politics for a moment, Canada has some very fine artists. This piece is at the Inuit Gallery of Vancouver. They have a wonderful website:

Anon,

I won't pull your post -- because i don't pull posts unless they call for violence or are obscene. But this is real art and very good art. And the Inuit are about as Canadian as you can get. I have a few Inuit pieces and am very glad to have them and hope to pass them on; they are works of enduring value unlike some of the stuff we see and hear. Anyway, suffice it to say, I disagree!
