About Curve!
Co-curated by Dana Claxton and Curtis Collins, the Curve! exhibition will shed light on a lesser-explored facet of Northwest Coast art—women’s contributions to the rich tradition of carving wood and argillite.
The exhibition will feature over 125 works of art that include poles, panels, masks, bowls, and other sculptures all intertwined with traditional knowledge. These works will be on loan from public and private collections across Canada and the United States. The exhibition will focus on a selection of carvers active from the 1950s to present day, highlighting the pivotal role of women artists within the larger tradition of indigenous carving along the coast of British Columbia.
