NORVAL MORRISSEAU: THE RED LAKE YEARS

A special exhibit of the Red Lake Museum, June - Sept. 2000

Norval Morrisseau standing in front of a mural at the old Red Lake Indian Friendship Centre, 1960s. 
The painting in the centre was done by Morrisseau, while Carl Ray and Joshim Kakegamic, also Woodland artists of the area, painted the works on the left and right respectively (Red Lake Museum).  The following exhibit is a reproduction of the catalogue which accompanied the exhibition.  During 2001, this show travelled to the following communities in Manitoba: Leaf Rapids, The Pas, Thompson, Brandon, and Winnipeg.  It received rave reviews everywhere it went.

The Red Lake Museum gratefully acknowledges the financial support of the Department of Canadian Heritage for this project.
