November 26, 2010 – September, 30, 2011 (Gallery 3)
From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, Charles and Isabella Edenshaw produced Haida art that continues to inspire the finest Haida artists of today, many of whom are their descendants. What is the aesthetic that makes their work recognizable and so respected? How has it remained contemporary for more than 100 years? This exhibit addresses these and other questions by highlighting Charles Edenshaw’s engraved silver bracelets, as well as his wife Isabella’s basketry, which Charles painted. Join curator Bill McLennan at 7 pm on Tuesday, November 30 for a talk and tour of the exhibit. Media sponsor The Georgia Straight.
