Abstract (English)

"Alanis Obomsawin, a member of the Abenaki Nation, is one of Canada’s most distinguished filmmakers. For the past 25 years, she has also worked as an engraver and printmaker, creating an important body of work, which has been exhibited in Canada and Europe. These visual artworks often deal with the same subjects as her films, but on a completely different note. This exhibition will show Alanis’s contrapuntal art practice, revealing a world where memory and dreams evoke the spirit of animals and humans in the context of historical events." -- Publisher's website
