• June 19–September 25, 2011 (The Audain Gallery)
• Student exhibition: A sculpture is more than carved stone and a print is more than coloured paper. Many people have played a role in the life of a work of art: from the artist, to the dealers, collectors, purchasers, auctioneers, and curators. Through their connections and points of contact, these people create the Inuit Art Market. How does Inuit art move through the art market? How is authenticity determined? Who decides what is valued? This exhibit, curated by UBC students, invites you to explore these questions and discover the many faces and voices of the Inuit art market. (This exhibit is shown in conjunction with Inuit Prints: Japanese Inspiration - James Houston, Un’ichi Hiratsuka and the Inuit Print Tradition, also shown in The Audain Gallery.)
