Напачи Путогук (26 июня 1938 года - 18 декабря 2002 г.) был канадским художником по графику инуитов . [ 1 ]
Жизнь и семья
[ редактировать ]Напачи Путогук - единственная дочь известного художника Питцеолак Ашуна . [ 2 ] Она родилась в лагере острова Саррук недалеко от Южного острова Баффин . [ 2 ] Ее отец, Ашуна, умер, когда ей было шесть или семь лет. После его смерти Pootoogook, вместе со своей матерью и пятью братьями, пережила традиционный кочевой образ жизни и инуиты и выжила при поддержке их сообщества, чтобы выжить. [ 3 ] С поддержкой ее матери Напачи начала рисовать в возрасте первых двадцати, развивая свой собственный уникальный стиль и точку зрения. [ 4 ] Ее братья, Киугак и Какак Ашуна, являются известными скульпторами. Кроме того, две ее невесты, Mayureak и Sorosiluto Ashoona являются хорошо известными графическими художниками.
In the mid-1950s, Napachie entered into an arranged marriage with Eegyvudluk Pootoogook, an Inuit printmaker and carver, although the difficulties she saw in her parents' arranged marriage originally made her hesitant. The two were married in Kaiktuuq, Nunavut, then moved to Cape Dorset where they lived for most of their marriage, except for two years spent living in Iqaluit.[5] Pootoogook and her husband had eleven children, several of whom died young. Two children died in a house fire in the early 1960s, and one of their daughters drowned soon after.[3] Continuing the family's artistic legacy, their surviving daughter, Annie Pootoogook, grew up to be an important contemporary Inuit artist known for her prints and drawings. In her lifetime, Napachie was made a grandmother to many grandchildren.[3]
Pootoogook's only written and spoken language was Inuktitut.[3]
Work
[edit]Pootoogook began drawing in her early twenties with her mother's encouragement.[2] Like many Inuit artists, she brought her drawings to the Cape Dorset-based West Baffin Eskimo Co-operative (now known as the Kinngait Co-operative), an institution that would purchase artworks and offered art classes. Pootoogook sold her first drawings to James Archibald Houston for $20 when she was twenty-five years old.[6]
She continued to draw and make prints until her death, producing more than 5000 original works.[5]
Pootoogook's art was included in fourteen Cape Dorset print collections and has been featured in many anthologies of Inuit art since the 1960s.[1]
Inspiration and themes
[edit]Much of Pootoogook's early work documented traditional Inuit spirituality, mythology and superstitions.[2] In the 1970s, she began using her art to document traditional Inuit life and clothing as well as local histories.[2] The drawings created toward the end of her career told stories from her personal life and those of her ancestors, going back two generations.[7] Some of those later pieces illustrated darker aspects of Inuit life - covering themes like spousal abuse, starvation, forced marriage and infanticide.[7]
Techniques and methodologies
[edit]Pootoogook's drawings were primarily done with acrylic paints, black felt-tipped pens or pencil crayons.[2]
Her artistic style changed after she completed courses in acrylic painting and drawing workshops at the West Baffin Co-operative in 1976. After taking those classes, her art featured more landscapes and "Western notions of spatial composition."[2]
In her later career, when depicting events from her life, Pootoogook experimented with figure drawing and lithography.[7]
