Nickle Galleries, Calgary, AB - Sep 21-Dec 16

by Robin Laurence

The posthumous retrospective of this widely acclaimed artist includes paintings, drawings, prints, collages, ceramics and installation works gathered from public and private collections across Canada. Joane Cardinal-Schubert used her art to examine cultural, historical and environmental issues as well as to express personal experience. Of Kainai descent, she was keenly attuned to past and present conditions of Indigenous life while also critiquing the institutional categorization of “Native artist.”
